I don't know about you, but I'm seeing a whole bunch
articles
websites telling me
I need

Is
really time?
RSS (it stands
"Really Simple Syndication")
latest wave

"Content

content you want, without having

be nice?
Here's how
works: You find a website you like

An example:
My Simplified Selling site allows you

But why?
That's really
question. Of course we know why
internet folks want you

RSS feeds?
Privacy
RSS feeds are more private than newsletters. Unlike when you subscribe
newsletters (where you must give your email address
content provider so
information can be emailed
you) when you subscribe
RSS Feeds, you don't have
give your email address (or any personal information)
site owner, because they aren't mailing you their information.
Something
consider -
possible that content providers will start asking
personal information when subscribing
an RSS feed. It hasn't happened yet, so subscribe today before they start!
Portability
When I change email addresses or work

content I like, because my RSS reader

if you move across town, you don't lose

No 'Unsubscribe' Headaches
When I'm tired
