RSS (most commonly expanded as Really Simple Syndication) is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format. An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed", or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read using software called an "RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based, desktop-based, or mobile-device-based. A standardized XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. The user subscribes to a feed by entering into the reader the feed's URI or by clicking an RSS icon in a web browser that initiates the subscription process. The RSS reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new work, downloads any updates that it finds, and provides a user interface to monitor and read the feeds.

RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats. Although RSS formats have evolved from as early as March 1999, it was between 2005 and 2006 when RSS gained widespread use, and the ("") icon was decided upon by several major Web browsers.

A. 4info.net You can get any RSS feeds and get them in a text. As long as you have the RSS link you can. Just make an account, search "RSS", click the first one, click get custom..., enter link/name it, and make sure it's activated (click manage to check) and that's it. I have used it for over a year and haven't been charged ever. You can use it for sports, horoscopes, jokes, and a bunch of stuff

What are some good RSS channels for released secret information and scientific discoveries?
Q. anyone? I just recently got into using my RSS Reader and I am curious to find some interesting sites that I cannot simply find just by typing in "top secret" in google. Thanks in advance!

A. I don't think they announce secret information to the general public. However, we do announce scientific discoveries. Try the RSS feed of the scientific journal Nature.

How do I know how many people subscribe to my rss feeds?
Q. I have a blog on wordpress, and would like to see how many people have subscribed to my rss feed. How can I do this?

A. WordPress.com Stats doesn't seem to support counting feed subscribers. If you're running WordPress on your own host, there is a plugin called Feed Statistics.
