RSS (also referred to as feeds) allows you to subscribe to many weblogs and published news sources and have the content pulled to you automatically, so you don't need to go to multiple websites. RSS stands for Rich Site Syndication, Really Simple Syndication. or RDF Site Summary.

To read RSS, you'll need a tool called a news aggregator (or feed reader). Some popular aggregators, also known as RSS readers or feed readers, include Bloglines, Google Reader, and News Gator.

Many sites that provide RSS feeds indicate this by placing an orange RSS button somewhere on their pages.
