What are RSS Feeds?

RSS is a type of information resource
for subscribing to "feeds" that will let
you know when the service you've
subscribed to has been updated.

To use RSS feeds, you need to be
using a feed reader, or use the "live
bookmark" function available in
recent versions of most web browsers.

When you click on the feed links on
this page (or elsewhere, as indicated
by the orange feed icon RSS icon) your
browser will attempt to subscribe to
the feed using whatever tool is set as
the default RSS reader on your computer.
