The ultra-short explanation is that an RSS feed is a way of grabbing headlines from web sites, with links to the full stories, to keep track of changing content. There's a decent summary here: http://www.whatisrss.com/ To use RSS you need some RSS software. Some browsers, e.g. Opera, Firefox, include RSS, others e.g. Internet Explorer, don't. There are also separate RSS programs. Then you find a web site that offers an RSS feed which you want to keep an eye on - for instance the BBC news site, or I use it to keep an eye on computer related news at http://www.theregister.co.uk. Look for the letters RSS often orange coloured. -- Shift to the left! Shift to the right! Pop up, push down, byte, byte, byte!
