What is RSS Really?

RSS is the popular catch-all acronym, representing several online content syndication formats, including ATOM, RSS, RSS2, and GData. When blogs grow old and die, “RSS” will be left standing. With web widgets, gadgets, and modules from Google, Yahoo, and MSN — all based on relatively simple JavaScript-enhanced XML — publishers can now control the presentation of syndicated content.
