    OneDrive

                  OneDrive was launched by Microsoft in 2007. It was also known as SkyDrive. OneDrive is a cloud file
                  storage service. This cloud-based service gives users a space to store and share documents. When a
                  person is working on multiple projects, he/she has to deal with loads of files. These files occupy a lot of
                  disk space on the laptop or desktop. The person might even want to access the images and documents
                  from his/her mobile, iPad, or laptop.

                  OneDrive helps reduce the clutter from the desktop and access these files to edit/
                  read wherever the user is. This Internet based storage platform by Microsoft offers
                  5 GB of free space to the user with a Microsoft account.
                  Windows 10 users have  OneDrive as  an inbuilt feature on their computers. To  use the services of
                  OneDrive, you must be registered with Microsoft’s website.

                  RSS (REALLY SIMPLE SYNDICATION)

                  All of us search the Internet for so many things every day. We visit some sites regularly. RSS tracks this
                  information and regularly sends you updates whenever the sites are updated. RSS is used to organise
                  your favourite blogs, movies, news, images, etc. in a single window. Before RSS, the user had to visit
                  each website and check for updates. This led to spending a lot of time if no new updates found. With
                  RSS (RSS feeds) you save time. It fetches the updated web feed or newly published information from the
                  website/blog directly to you. So, you do not have to search for updated information again and again.

                  RSS is a collection of web feeds that could be headlines, music videos, blog entries, etc. to enable
                  RSS, you must first subscribe to content from multiple sources, like YouTube and blogs. An RSS feed
                  easily manages these notifications in an organized manner. Web builders use feeds to segregate fresh
                  content from their websites and web surfers. RSS may also be referred to as RSS feed, RSS channel, RDF
                  feed, XML feed, or Atom feed.

                  Starting RSS Feed

                  RSS feed is represented by a small orange symbol. If it is on a website, click on it and subscribe
                  to the relevant feed. This icon can be located at the extreme upper right-hand side of the
                  website or at the bottom of the website with other icons. You can also type “/rss” in the
                  address bar after the website name. You can subscribe to the RSS feed of your choice to read.

                              Factbot

                         XML  stands  for  Extensible  Markup  Language.  It  is  like  HTML  and  is  used  to  store  and  share
                         information on the Internet.

                  PODCASTING

                  The process of making digital recordings (audio or video) that are available for downloading is called
                  podcasting. It is a free service that allows users to download media files using the Internet. These
                  media files that can be downloaded from the Internet are called podcasts.
