Hi Phil, the RSS feed is a way to keep updated with new posts added to the forum without having to actually visit the site. If you use a application called a news reader you can enter in RSS feeds from lots of different sites and keep track of all updates from one place. Here are 2 links that explain it a bit better than I have: - http://www.whatisrss.com/ - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/help/3223484.stm (where they mention 'news feeds' substitute it with 'RSS feed') If you download and install the GardenStew toolbar it has a built-in RSS reader for this site. You may get it here: http://gardenstew.ourtoolbar.com/
