RSS syndication

Click to return to AbbeNormalRss Syndication

Once we started writing the RSS pages here, i discovered the RssFaq. It’s great!A totally non-technical description (referring to syndication as “publish & subscribe”).There are many RssReaders, and thousands of RssFeeds. Many news sites produce feeds (or others make them available by ’scraping’ the raw HTML). Most WebLogSoftware produce feeds (and some now read them as well!); Also see WikisWithRss.

There are many individual and group RssForums, for discussing the unfortunately-varied RssStandards.

SyndicEight — great source of feeds, tools and advocacy for RSS.

RSS stands for Rich Site Summary, or is it RDF Site Summary? Really Simple Syndication? No one seems to know for sure. It’s like UseNet, but much less organized.Whatever we call it, it makes it easier for you to stay up on dozens or hundreds of other sites. It makes it simple for others to stay up to date on your site even if they won’t visit your web pages all the time. It’s a system of standards and software that lets you publish and/or read RssFeeds of your own and others’ work. The feeds contain titles or headlines, a WebAddress? to the actual item, and optionally a description or summary (or the entire item).

For example, to the left you are seeing syndicated listings of headlines and summaries from the Ben Hammersley.com and Syndication News from Bill Kearney feeds. If you go to either site you’ll see the same articles, but on their web page, with full text, and the usual sidebar of links and so on.

With RssReaders you can browse many feeds, in less time than one would take to go through all the web sites.

Many readers accept the regular URL for a site and will find the feed for themselves. If that doesn’t work, the white-on-orange XML icon () is the most common one for RssFeeds (but see RssIcons). Look for an icon like that, or a link that is labeled with “syndicate” or “feed” (or ends with .xml, .rdf or .rss), and copy it (right click or control-click and “copy URL”) and paste it into your RSS reader wherever it asks for a URL.


Sof items (about anything), possibly with links, possibly with a great deal of other MetaData?. Someone called RSS an event bus. It could easily be extended to represent metadata about a list of files in a folder, a list of e-mails, etc. This may further some sort of useful convergence among these things.
