RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an easy way to manage all the new content that is being published daily in selected blogs and wikis. The RSS feed provides a mechanism for readers to receive current unread content from Websites, blogs and wikis at a central point or Web page, called a “feed reader.” This eliminates having to go out and visit each Website, blog or wiki to read what has been newly published. The feed reader organizes the selected feeds by subject and displays the newest unread postings on a single Web page. RSS is also being used by PubMed and CINAHL to allow searchers to generate an RSS feed of a specific PubMed search to display the new results in a feed reader (rather than email). The RSS icon on Websites, blogs and wikis tells you that a feed can be read by a feed reader.
