You can get it on your desktop with a Windows program like RSS Bandit (link below), but you can also add RSS feeds to your My Yahoo! page, your Yahoo! 360 page.\n\nIf you have a Google account, you can read RSS feeds in Google Reader (link below).

RSS is short for Really Simple Syndication, a method devised to "push" or drive content you're interested in receiving to you, instead of you going to the content and retrieving it. An RSS feed is that content.\n\nYou've probably noticed more and more websites with "RSS" displayed on them.  That means that part or all of that site can be delivered to you via RSS.  Generally you click on it to find what content is available, where there will be special links to that content that you copy in order to paste into your RSS reader.\n\nThe RSS reader translates the code (called XML) from the link and displays regular HTML links for you to access on the content provider's site.\n\nWhile there are several reader programs available, I use My Yahoo!, which has a built-in RSS reader.

Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0) \nWeb feeds provide web content or summaries of web content together with links to the full versions of the content, and other metadata. RSS in particular, delivers this information as an XML file called an RSS feed, webfeed, RSS stream, or RSS channel. In addition to facilitating syndication, web feeds allow a website's frequent readers to track updates on the site using an aggregator.\n\nWeb feeds are widely used by the weblog community to share the latest entries' headlines or their full text, and even attached multimedia files. (See podcasting, vodcasting, broadcasting, screencasting, Vloging, and MP3 blogs.) Since mid-2000, use of RSS has spread to many of the major news organizations, including Reuters, CNN, PR Newswire, and the BBC. These providers allow other websites to incorporate their "syndicated" headline or headline-and-short-summary feeds under various usage agreements. RSS is now used for many purposes, including marketing, bug-reports, or any other activity involving periodic updates or publications. Many corporations are turning to RSS for delivery of their news, replacing email and fax distribution.\n\nAs the mainstream media attempts to realize the full potential of RSS, the new media is utilizing RSS by bypassing traditional news sources. Consumers and journalists are now able to have news constantly fed to them instead of searching for it.\n\nA program known as a feed reader or aggregator can check a list of feeds on behalf of a user and display any updated articles that it finds. It is common to find web feeds on major websites and many smaller ones. Some websites let people choose between RSS or Atom formatted web feeds; others offer only RSS or only Atom.\n\nRSS-aware programs are available for various operating systems (see list of news aggregators). Client-side readers and aggregators are typically constructed as standalone programs or extensions to existing programs such as web browsers. Browsers such as Opera browser and Mozilla Firefox are moving toward integrated feed reader functions.\n\nWeb-based feed readers and news aggregators require no software installation and make the user's "feeds" available on any computer with Web access. Some aggregators combine existing web feeds into new feeds, e.g., taking all football related items from several sports feeds and providing a new football feed. There are also search engines for content published via web feeds like Feedster or Blogdigger.

RSS is a way which people distribute their information. Like news, or blog posts. You might want to get some RSS feeds because it's a simple way to get all the information you need in 1 place. So for example if every day you get on the internet and surf to 10 different sites to read 10 different things, if you subscribe to the RSS for these 10 sites, you can potentially just use an RSS reader (like My Yahoo) and get the information from all those 10 sites in 1 place.\n\nTo do just that, read this: http://my.yahoo.com/s/about/rss/index.html.

Definition: The acronym RSS means Rich Site Summary, or some may consider its meaning as Really Simple Syndication. It is a document type that lists updates of websites or blogs available for syndication. These RSS documents (also known as 'feeds') may be read using aggregators. RSS feeds may show headlines only or both headlines and summaries.\nExamples: If you update your blog regularly, you might want to make your content easily available to other people by using RSS feeds.

You can do it by converting the feed into segment movies, and saving those off, and then generate rss linking to those. But pretty bad way of doing it. RSS is not made for streaming.

Mario,\n\nRSS is one of the technologies that makes podcasting possible and so popular.\n\nRSS (Really Simple Synidcation) is a standard for creating a feed file that you can subscribe to (usually for free). The purpose of subscribing to an RSS feed is to automatically be notified of and receive new content from a blog, web page or podcast as soon as it is posted. This is done by subscribing to the feed in an aggregator/reader such as your My Yahoo page.\n\nYou mentioned your "RSS folder". I imagine what you are referring to is some sort of feed reader.\n\nAn RSS feed can contain text/images (such as blog posts) and/or a link to a media file (such as audio or video). In the latter case, this is referred to as a podcast. If you're using a podcatcher (podcast aggregator) any media files linked to in a feed are automatically downloaded to your computer for you to consume.
