Content Syndication With RSS eBook
|
RSS is sprouting all over the Web, connecting weblogs and providing
news feeds. Originally developed by Netscape in 1999, RSS (which can
stand for RDF Site Summary, Rich Site Summary, or Really Simple
Syndication) is an XML-based format that allows web developers to
describe and syndicate web site content. Using RSS files allows
developers to create a data feed that supplies headlines, links, and
article summaries from a web site. Other sites can then incorporate
them into their pages automatically. Although RSS is in widespread use,
people struggle with its confusing and sometimes conflicting
documentation and versions. Content Syndication with RSS is the first book to provide a comprehensive reference to the specifications and the tools that make syndication possible.
