An RSS Feed lets you stay up-to-date with content on websites, blogs, news sites, and more. You can subscribe to any feed that is of relevance or interest. The feed is sent to an RSS reader or your email where you can browse and read it all at once. Watch the video below for a fun and informative lesson on RSS feeds.
