RSS in 10 words or less

I blogged this over on my site back in May, but realized it's totally appropriate here.

37Signals asked:

Explain RSS in 10 words or less to someone who reads news online (and a possibly few blogs although they may not necessarily know them as “blogs”), but doesn’t know what a newsreader or aggregator is.

Some of the responses:

  • Get the latest site updates without visiting the webpage.
  • News comes to you. You don't have to gather it.
  • News sent to your computer. No spam. No browsing
  • What you want, when you want, how you want it
  • Makes life easier, but not really
