RSS

   <networking> (RSS) A family of document types (generally based
   on {RDF}) for listing updates to a site.  RSS documents
   (generally called "RSS feeds") are readable with RSS readers
   (generally called "{aggregators}") like {BottomFeeder},
   although, in 2003, it is anticipated that aggregator functions
   will be incorporated into {web browsers} and/or {NNTP
   newsreaders}.
