What is RSS? And how do I use it to make my life easier

But First My Conclusion… By the time I am done you will know what this means…

RSS is a popular way to pull in news and information from across the Web. "Really Simply Syndication" allows web sites and blogs to push content to you easily. Say you come across a blog you find fascinating. A click or two and it now feeds directly to your My Yahoo! page. Works the same for major media outlets like the New York Times as for thousands of other sites across the Web. From Yahoo.com

RSS is a marked up language just like HTML HTML Open and closed tags Few required tags Many optional tags Can be read by a browser Very free form in nature Usually hand coded RSS Open and closed tags Some required tags Some optional tags Can be read by a browser or aggregator Very structured in nature Usually generated by script

RSS Example Step by Step Information can be entered into a database A script uses this data and generates an RSS file Static HTML can also be ‘parsed’ by a script to generate an RSS formatted file

All you need is the RSS URL: Example:

Sample RSS file with one channel (RISCA) and three items. For each item: Date Title Description Link

Making it look nice… Parsers – Allows you to display the RSS file on a web page Aggregators – Allows you to display multiple files on a user configurable web page like My Yahoo or in a desktop RSS reader like Sage XLS Files – Formats the actual RSS file to look good in a web browser, much like CSS does for an HTML page

A parser is a script which tells your webpage how to display an RSS feed on that page. RSS Parser Example: Rex Parser, Magpie

An aggregator is an application or host which is designed to display multiple RSS feeds RSS Aggregator Exp: MyYahoo, Sage, Pluck

An XLS file can be linked from within an RSS file and will give a browser a default style sheet of how to display the raw feed Within Browser RSSXLS
