Subscribing to an RSS feed enables you to keep up to date with the latest content added to a website. RSS feeds are commonly available on pages where content changes frequently, such as news pages. You can view an RSS feed through a browser-based feed reader, such as My Yahoo! or Google Reader, or you can download the information to your computer.
If you use Microsoft Outlook you can download the feed to your RSS feed folder within Outlook. Alternatively you can subscribe through Feed My Inbox which will send the feed straight to your inbox.
