RSS Feeds, What They Are and How to Use Them

How do I know if a site has it? They usually have an Orange XML or RSS button on their site. If in firefox, often there is a little orange button in the lower right hand corner. The difference between search engines and RSS feeds If you go to any search engine and want to search a topic that had up-to-date information that was released minutes ago, what do you think the likely-hood that you would find it?
