RSS or a "feed" stands for "Really Simple Syndication." Instead of repeatedly visiting various websites for new information and news or filling up your email inbox with email newsletter subscriptions, you can use RSS to have the information delivered to you.

To get started, you'll need an RSS reader or "aggregator" to manage and collect your RSS feeds. We've provided some RSS reader suggestions below.

* Also available through the BookLetters email newsletter service.
