    An RSS feed is like a subscription. For example, there is a blog that you always read or visit. Before, you have to subscribe to it and they will send you a new issue through your email. Instead of doing that, you put the RSS feed into your site or blog, they will send the article (the one you subscribe) directly into the site. So instead of going to the site of the article, you can read it directly from your site because they "feed" it into your site. I hope you understand my explanation. Ü

    RSS is a family of XML file formats for web syndication used by news websites and weblogs. They are used to provide items containing short descriptions of web content together with a link to the full version of the content. This information is delivered as an XML file called RSS feed, webfeed, RSS stream, or RSS channel.

    I have a friend who started a feed service called Feed Each Other at http://feedeachother.com and it looks something like a page with headlines on it. You can choose where the headlines comes from, and then you have everything you wanted to read on one page, like a table of contents.
