Today’s Tech Tip… What is RSS?
I’m not going to go into all the technical details of what RSS is… this is just a brief overview on what RSS can do. BostonRockDog.com offers RSS feeds as an alternate way to keep up with what Layla and Frampton are up to.
I like to read a lot of websites daily - So many in fact, that I can’t possibly visit them all every day. What I CAN do though is subscribe to their “RSS” (Really Simple Syndication) feed. There are a lot of RSS readers out there, but my favorite is Google Reader.
Instead of going to all my favorite sites every day, I just need to go to Google Reader. It pulls all the newest posts from my subscribed sites where I can easily read them in one spot.
This video is a very brief and entertaining description of RSS.





Gee, Stephen…thanks for putting RSS into plain English
I never knew what it was, not being a ‘blogger’. Thanks!
