What is RSS

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. RSS is simply a way of distributing content that identifies the most important parts of a news item, such as the title or the lead-in of a piece of news.

Through an RSS reader or aggregator, the user can subscribe to a publication and see if there is new content every time they connect to the reader and run an eye over the basic information before accessing the whole piece posted on the web. RSS readers and aggregators not only allow a single publication to be read but provide subscription to thousands of websites and blogs of all kinds.

How do you subscribe?

To subscribe to the Auditori using RSS, you need an RSS reader or aggregator. RSS readers may be websites, computer programs or browsers.

Some examples of RSS readers or aggregators are:

The Firefox browser allows you to subscribe to RSS using bookmarks or favourites.

On websites such as MyYahoo or Google Reader, you simply need to register for these services and add subscriptions. This way, you will be able to access your RSS from any computer and even mobile devices with an Internet connection.

To use a program, such as FeedReader, you need to download the program to a computer or mobile device, install it and subscribe to the RSS (Add feed or subscription). Only subscriptions made on a computer can be consulted.

On this page on Wikipedia, you will find an explanation and a more extensive list of RSS aggregators and readers.
