====== Links/Feeds > RSS Feed ======

An RSS Feed provides real-time information on web-based content as it is posted or edited. Typically, an RSS Feed will provide a short description of the content (or the first sentence or so of the text) and a link to the content, as the demo below illustrates. If the RSS Feed is for forum posts, it will usually include the author's name, as in the example below.
