What is RSS?
The acronym RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary. An RSS feed is a syndicated news feed in an XML format. Through a news feed reader, you can subscribe to various RSS feeds to get customizable news feeds delivered directly to your desktop.
Many of the feeds are preloaded in MyLATimes, an easy to use, browser-based reader. Certain feeds are also available via Twitter. Click here for more information.
