What is RSS? Wakooz definition

RSS / 3 Comments

In 2008, based on GOOGLE zeitgeist2008, the 5th most common search beginning by “What is…” was “What is RSS”.

This is very surprising knowing that almost every sites and every bloggers have their own RSS feeds. Surprising also due to the fact that RSS exists since nearly 10 years

Based on that, here is a brief summary of what is RSS:
1- RSS stands for Real-time Simple Syndication .
2- RSS can be read in a widget (small frame) located on a RSS feed reader (aggregator). There are 2 kinds of aggregator: web-based (Wakooz, Netvibes, IGoogle, etc.) or download software (Rawdog, Feedonfeeds, Myheadlines, etc.)
3- RSS can be :
- News feeds: Last news coming from your favorites newspaper or webzines.
- Blog articles: up-to-date articles from your favorite blogs. Like the RSS news feeds, blog articles feeds can be shown with the title and a brief description of each article. Some time, an image can be shown.
- Multimedia Gadgets: Youtube, Flickr , etc.
- Flash gadgets: Games, time, meteo, etc.
- SocialMedia gadgets: Twitter, Facebook, Plurk, Hi5, MySpace, etc.
- Other gadgets: Currency converters,

So basically, you can put whatever you are using/reading on one single page. For example, an internet user interested in BasketBall could put on his RSS feed Reader, the following basketball feeds: BostonHerald, Daily News, ESPN NBA, LA Times, FOXSports.
Moreover, if the same person is using Facebook, Hotmail and Youtube, he can add the associated widgets.
On Wakooz, the page could look like this:
