                          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 those sites are updated. RSS Feeds are an easy
                     way to stay up to date with your favorite websites, such as blogs or online magazines. If a site offers an
                     RSS feed, you get notified whenever a post goes up. RSS is used to organize your favorite blogs, movies,
                     news, images, etc. in one 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 which could be headlines, music video, blog entries, etc. To enable RSS,
                     you must first subscribe to content from multiple sources, like YouTube and Blogs. RSS feed handles
                     these notifications easily 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, 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. Then click Subscribe to this feed on the page that
                     appears in your browser. At last, click the Subscribe button.

                          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 Internet. These media
                     files that can be downloaded from the Internet are called podcasts. Podcasts allow you to share your
                     content with listeners from around the world. Podcasts are similar to radio shows but offer unique
                     advantages that make them appealing to audiences and content creators. The hosts of a podcast are
                     referred to as "podcasters."
