RSS - RDF Site Summary aka Rich Site Summary aka Really Simple Syndication

An RSS 2.0 document, called a "feed", "web feed", or "channel", contains either full text or a summary of content from a linked website. It is an easy way to keep up with new information on the user's chosen websites. e.g. feeds can be sent directly to a user's inbox.
