RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a web feed format that is used to publish and distribute regularly updated content, such as news articles, blog posts, and audio or video episodes. RSS feeds can be accessed using RSS reader software or applications, and can be used to automatically receive updates from multiple websites in a single location. This allows users to easily stay informed and up-to-date with the latest content from their favorite websites and authors. RSS is a popular and widely-used format, and is supported by many publishing platforms and content management systems. It is often used in combination with other technologies, such as Media RSS (MRSS) for multimedia content, and Atom for more advanced features.
