What is the purpose of the RSS link at the top?

I haven't the slightest idea. I clicked on it and because even more confused. The more stuff I click on, the more confused I get.

What does "RSS" stand for... does anyone know?

I also still don't understand what the difference between "Articles" and "Activity" is. And I hate the way it defaults to Articles. I liked it when it defaulted to "Comments", er, I mean "Full Comments".

Sheesh... my head hurts again... I'm signing off FR for a few hours. Nice talking to you, Vision.

Wait a minute... I meant to say 'I liked it when FR defaulted to COMMENTS. NOT "Full Comments".

Good grief, I don't know what end is up here anymore...

RSS = "Really Simple Syndication"

Sounds stupid, used widely in Firefox to subscribe to live bookmarks, don't know about IE since I don't use it.

Live Bookmarks

Is RRS only available with Firefox?
