RSS (really simple syndication) is web content--news, grant announcements, FDA alerts -- that can be delivered instantaneously to a private web page, an RSS reader, or even email (though RSS is the #1 antidote to email chaos). Blogs (weblogs) are news portals managed by one or more experts. Some are more like public diaries, others offer tips or advice, and most allow comments to specific posts from the readership. Yale offers everyone the opportunity to start a blog. Most blogs also distribute their postings via RSS feeding. Learn enough to get started with the next big thing.
