What is RSS?

You may have seen the RSS logo around the Internet

RSS is a well-established web technology that lets you subscribe to websites that support it. You'll know a website supports it if they mention it on their website or have the RSS logo on it. For example, Simon Willison's blog has an RSS feed.

Generally, the way it works is you grab the link from clicking on their RSS logo, and put it into your favorite RSS reader (e.g. Gazette). From there, you should be able to monitor your RSS reader for new updates to that feed, and any other feed you're following.
