What Are RSS Feeds?
RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication." It's a format that
web sites and blogs can use to send updated headlines to you via
services like My Yahoo!. My Yahoo! gathers the content you
select from a variety of sources and displays it for you in one
convenient location. Syndication means you don't have to visit
each site individually to see what's new -- you simply scan
headlines or brief article summaries and click to read the full
text. That's the "really simple" part. And it's "really simple"
for publishers to make their content accessible this way too.

Blogs are an Art Form that Takes Practice to do Well
Writing?Blogs?Blogs are on-line journals where people express themselves through writing. Writing?Writing is the process where one puts down words of a language on a format that others can read. This process has not been around very long, to use one of my writing teacher's favorite sayings, "Writing has only existed for one day in the one year that humanity has existed." Speaking and thinking come much easier than writing. These processes just flow out naturally like a river of consciousness; sometimes we hardly have to think about doing them. Anyone and everyone can write words down on paper but that doesn't mean it's 'good writing', myself included. Like most things in life, our society already takes writing for granted which is proving to expose more of our ignorance. Writing is a new form of expression, and if we want to do it in a way that the masses can connect with our ideas, we have to think much more simply and clearly about this art.
