What Are RSS Feeds? www.pbs.org
RSS feeds are free updated content sent to your computer via the Internet
(RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication). The feeds usually contain headlines,
article summaries, and links to full articles.
To subscribe to RSS feeds, you need to use something called a news reader, or
aggregator; there are dozens of news readers available, and many are offered
free of charge. Some readers are available as desktop software that you download
and install on your computer. Others are Web-based readers that you can access
on the Internet. Both Google and Yahoo offer directories of news readers. The
reader you choose will have instructions for how to subscribe to RSS feeds.
What Are Podcasts?
Podcasting is a way of publishing audio broadcasts via the Internet.
Specifically, podcasts are feeds (such as
RSS
feeds) that contain digital audio files, such as MP3 files. Listeners can
subscribe to feeds using software that periodically checks for and downloads new
content automatically. This software is available on the Web and is generally
free; here is a sampling of available programs (please note, PBS does not
endorse or guarantee any particular software program):
