    If you are using RSS feed,you dont have to visit the website to view the latest content.So you can cut the time and save your bandwith.

    Imagine yourself loading a page full with images just to read 100 words of article.

    To subscribe for RSS feed,you need a RSS reader.

    Get it from http://www.rssreader.com/

    If you are using firefox,it has built in RSS reader.Just click on the RSS button at the URL bar to subsribe.

    Alternatively,you an get a RSS reader plugin.I'm using Sage.

    Why RSS?

    RSS feeds deliver new content to you on the topics you are interested in. RSS provides a convenient way to syndicate information from a variety of sources, including news stories, updates to a Web site or important bulletins. Most people take advantage of some form of feed-reader software to monitor updates to RSS feeds.
