what is rss?

What is RSS? - Lockergnome's RSS Resource I enjoyed this happy, though slightly flippantly ended response to the common question "What is RSS?" I hope it becomes just "Subscribe" as a link on pages, and that proper RSS handling happens soon. On my Mac, clicking on an RSS feed in Safari drops me into my separate aggregator (NetNewsWire Lite) and opens the Add New Feed dialog with the link in it. Now if someon could point out to me what the MyYahoo! RSS module is, and how I can use it, I'd be obliged to go back to that site instead of directly into Yahoo! Mail everyday.
