"RSS is the element that makes a blog different from the
old-style static website. The initials stand for 'Really Simple Syndication'
(also Rich Site Summary - pick the one you like). What it does is announce
changes to the website by creating a "feed" that can be read by the spider from
an aggregator such as Bloglines or NewsGator.
An aggregator keeps track of your links to favorite blogs, much like the
bookmarks section of your browser. It's different than a bookmarks section,
because the aggregator can alert you to the frequent updates to blogs, which
your browser can't do."

"RSS is a format for syndicating news and the content of news-like sites, including major news sites like Wired, news-oriented community sites like Slashdot, and personal weblogs. But it's not just for news. Pretty much anything that can be broken down into discrete items can be syndicated via RSS: the "recent changes" page of a wiki, a changelog of CVS checkins, even the revision history of a book. Once information about each item is in RSS format, an RSS-aware program can check the feed for changes and react to the changes in an appropriate way.RSS-aware programs called news aggregators are popular in the weblogging community."
