Does anyone still use RSS?
Is it still used online? Yes and no. RSS feeds are certainly still present (more on this later), but they aren't as dominant as they once were. Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and others have become the go-to option for following sites, watching feeds, and learning about the latest content.
What is a RSS feed and how does it work?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It refers to files easily read by a computer called XML files that automatically update information. This information is fetched by a user's RSS feed reader that converts the files into the latest updates from websites in an easy to read format.
What can I use instead of RSS?
Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and other Social Media Services
They're right — for themselves — but social media services like Twitter are a substitute to RSS for many people. When Google Reader was originally released, Twitter didn't even exist yet.
What are the benefits of RSS?
The main benefit of RSS is that instead of having to go out to each individual website and see if there is any new content, content comes to you in one centralized location. The predominant method for using RSS feeds is through an application known as a feed reader or aggregator, such as Google Reader.
Does Google have an RSS reader?
Google Reader uses a tool called RSS to subscribe to web sites, and there are actually a ton of other RSS readers on the internet. After the shutdown announcement, a ton of awesome readers have come out of the woodwork and improved their offerings, so there's something for just about everyone.
