Let's turn back the clock a few years and talk about some technological oldies but goodies from the start of the Web 2.0 world.
I'm sure you've heard about RSS feeds, but can you tell me what RSS stands for and what is does?
RSS stands for "Real Simple Syndication" and does exactly what is says it does, provides the technological means for real simple syndication of a web sites content, including blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video, into a standard format that is called a "feed" or "news feed." Typically RSS feeds contain headlines and short blurbs, but sometimes RSS feeds contain full articles.
The standardize feeds allows for web site owners to distribute their content out to individual news feed readers, and feed aggregator sites, like Google reader and it allows individuals to bring their favorite web site's content to their desktop or homepage.
RSS allows you to keep up to date with multiple Web sites, and gives you control over which headlines you decide to click on. Power to the People!
