What Is RSS?

OK, here’s the way I look at it. You can either watch this amusing video on
what RSS is all about, or if you’re a Wikipedia guy, you can read the text below:
RSS In Plain English
What Is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. What that means is you can get all the new and updated content of your favourite websites like this one sent to you without ever having to go to the 1001 websites you like.
Wow! But How Do I Get This Content?
SIMPLE! You click on the RSS Icon (the square orange one) and it will lead you to a page to choose the Aggregator you want to use to view the content!
That Sounds Bombastic! What’s An Aggregator?!
Just wanted to scare you there! An Aggregator is actually a CHIM word for an RSS Reader i.e. the software you use to view the content.
My preferred RSS Reader is Bloglines and you can get it for free with only a few clicks of a button HERE or if you’re a Google Guy you can get the Google Reader HERE
Can I Subscribe Via E-Mail?
DEFINITELY! When you click on the RSS Icon, you’ll be given a few ways to subscribe.
Look out for the subscribe via E-Mail option!
VOILA! That was Really Simple Saif-Planation wasn’t it? Click on The RSS Icon to get marvellous, inspirational and motivational Personal Development Videos sent to you via your reader:
