What is the RSS feed at the top and bottom of each forum and thread?

For browsers able to provide them, or services such as feed channels that are often found in LiveJournal, Blogger, and similar thing, RSS feeds are newsfeed equivalents to webpages. They allow you to view all the information from a single thread in one webpage, or to bookmark each individual post as they happen in your bookmarks for faster access.

With firefox, when you're able to access an RSS feed, a small button appears in the lower right of the window. Clicking on that asks if you want to subscribe to feed, thereby adding a live bookmark to your list of bookmarks, giving you an active list of posts in that forum as they happen.

It's like the Friends feature you'll find in LiveJournal where you get a summary of all your friends entry. Similar to that, but in RSS form for threads, comics, and other things online. Most often, you'll find RSS feeds for online news sources, so that you can get all the news you want without having to physically find it yourself.

For more information, visit RSS Feed--Wikipedia Source

Basically, what Zabuza said ...

Personally I don't use them at all. But, they came with the new Acmlmboard version, so, it doesn't hurt to have the options I'd say.

I only use them as a review of whom has posted in my stories so that I know whether I should visit the board or not that day, since I can find out just from my bookmarks list rather than visiting the page...since the recent posts things isn't working yet.

Sounds complicated ... I had a little click and it asked me to save and open up in a program I do understand a bit of what it does ... from what you said Zabuza, I will just leave it
