OK, I need to be upfront and honest with you. Recently, I had no idea what those little orange buttons on websites were all about.
Until I viewed an How To Use RSS Feeds video to learn how powerful they were to help people like me, "information hogs."
In one sentence, an RSS feed is like having a subscription to your favorite gossip magazine -- expect it's totally free.
If you’d like to keep up-to-date with new information in post, like this site, you can subscribe to an RSS feed.
What is RSS And How Do do I use it?
RSS is a way of having people that you trust automatically send information to you... without having to go to their website. Using this free feature has saved me hours of having to check 20+ websites to see if they have updated. When the site is updated, the new content is automatically sent to you - in the form of a feed.
It's feed takes the form of a secretary, like a virtual assistant who creates personalized executive summaries each week
In order to read the feed, you’ll need a feedreader. There are a number of free feedreaders. The one I use is Google Feedreader. Once you’ve got that, anytime you see that orange icon on a website, click it, and you’ll subscribe yourself to that website.

Kendall,
This is something I didn't know how to do, and you've given me a way to implement and use it. Thanks for the best kind of post: USEFUL!
