RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication."
What this means is that there are sites, usually news sites, that put a headline and short siummary into the RSS format. Aggregator programs collect these headlines from all of the sources you've subscribed to and present them to you in a neat, organized format.
Most such programs will kep track og what you've read or not and will grab just the newer stuff.
The Library feeds for both the main forum and the Under the Moon forums will present a maximum of 50 of he newest posts.
