Try searching for an "RSS Directory" in the search engine.
YouTube has videos explaining RSS.
You can display and provide links for your Y!A questions, your starred questions, and the news that interests you on your Y!360 and MySpace pages with an RSS feed.
The feed for my questions in MySpace updates faster than the one in my Y!360.
Find your list of questions.
To the right of your most recent question you will see the RSS link.
Click on it with the right button then left click on copy shortcut (URL).
Or you can double click the RSS link and then copy the URL from your address bar.
In your Y!360 click "My Page."
Click "Add a Feed (via RSS)" or click "Edit Feeds."
Right click on one of the three boxes then left click on paste (the short cut - URL).
Then save.
You can also display information from:
Yahoo! News (for specific subjects like your state, country, or corporation)
MSN News
BBC News
MySpace Blogs
Craigslist, Digg, Netflix, YouTube, and many periodicals.

First off RSS is not just for blogs, it is for ALL types of Internet content.
Additionally it can be time consuming to visit a pile of blogs each day, not knowing if new content is avaiable or unavailabe. RSS feeds let you know when new content has been posted. RSS also allows you to scan the headlines and only click through to the items of interest, saving time.

With a RSS feed you can read the content from many sites in one go in a feed reader. With bookmarks you have to visit each site separately.

rss feed will add the info to your home page so when browser is opened you can read a small incerp of changes as a bookmark you would need to click it then go to main site.
rss feed is basically a preview of what is there then you make a choice of going to the site reading the entire thing or ignore it.
