What is RSS?
RSS stands for "Rich Site Summary" but is typically known as "Really Simple Syndication." RSS allows people to receive notifications of changes to a website without having to visit the site themselves. Instead, users use an aggregator that will scan the RSS file and provide site news and update notifications when they happen.
 
What Programs Support RSS?
Many programs exist that allow you receive RSS notifications and many free ones are available. Some of the most popular ones are described below:

Program Name Supports License Download Link Notes
AmphetaDesk linux mac windows Freeware Disobey.com/AmphetaDesk  
Aggreg8 linux mac windows Freeware Aggreg8.net (Requires Mozilla or Firefox web browser)
FeedReader     windows Freeware FeedReader.com  
NewzCrawler     windows Freeware NewzCrawler.com  
aKregator linux     Freeware aKregator.upnet.ru (Designed for KDE)
 
How Do I Use RSS?
To use RSS, first get an RSS capable program (see above). Next, configure the program to read the RSS file for this website. Consult the directions of the specific RSS aware program you chose for specific instructions on how to load an RSS stream.
