slothrop Posted October 26, 2004 Posted October 26, 2004 RSS is a way of packaging web data so you can aggregate it. In other words, RSS feeds let you gather the content from different websites together and read it all at once. Imagine a web page where you have your favorite cc.com forums in one box, the news headlines in another, and (as PP suggests) real-time images of your favorite mountain passes in another. Quote
