RSS stands for real simple syndication. RSS uses a family of standard web feed formats to publish frequently updated information: blog entries, news headlines, audio, and\/or video. Many websites, even personal blogs, have RSS feeds which you can subscribe to via a feed reader. Why would you want to do this? Why <strong>wouldn&#8217;t<\/strong> you? Instead of visiting your favorite websites manually to check for new content, the content is delivered to you via your feed reader. <\/p>\n<p>Each reader has it&#8217;s own pros and cons. Prior to its demise, I was using Google Reader, and now I use <a href=\"http:\/\/feedly.com\" target=\"_blank\">Feedly<\/a>. I&#8217;m subscribed to a ton of feeds &#8211; everything from personal blogs to self improvement &#038; finance sites, to daily deal sites. Feedly is compatible with mobile devices and the data is synchronized across platforms so I can read feeds on the web, my tablet, or my phone and once that feed is marked as read it won&#8217;t appear in the application if I pick up my reading on another device.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to having content delivered to you regularly, Feedly makes it easy to share content via social networks and email. If I come across an article I want my husband to read, I can email him the link straight from Feedly. Or I can post it to Facebook to share with with my friends (Twitter and Google+ are available options as well).<\/p>\n<p>Feedly makes it easy to stay on top of my interests without spending a lot of time hunting down the content, and since it&#8217;s free, I highly recommend you give it a try. I&#8217;m willing to bet once you do you&#8217;ll never want to go back to using your bookmarks to visit your favorite sites again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever heard of RSS feeds?
