Hello, my online name is Ralph SilverSky and of course that isn't my real name; my universal username for websites online is ThirdQED. Currently, I am a first-year student at a University in the USA, taking my first steps toward my dream of becoming a physician.
My interests include computer, internet, health, medicine, chess, anime, manga, novels, martial art, badminton, philosophy, and psychology. By answering and asking various questions on here, I hope to be able to learn more about these subjects and activities.
If you have a question for me or just simply wish to chat about something, feel free to drop a message in my Advicenators.com inbox, Gmail inbox, or give me a phone call at (801) 228-0733 (US only, please).
Answers That I've Given
Question:
On web pages you get to be asked about updating feeds or something like that.
What’s meant by feeds and what is the purpose?
My Answer:
Web feeds are basically the shortened version of a Web page that has been created for syndication. It's just a new way to keep yourself updated with the website.
For example, you subscribe to an RSS feed (Really Simple Syndication feed) of a blog. When the owner of that blog post a new blog post a new post, you will notice it through the feed.
It's a new way to send out or receive updates. Instead of noticing you through the email, you are noticed through the "feed."
Did I make any sense there? Sorry, it's kind of hard to explain this one :-)
(Rating: 5) Ja, I can say you made a lot of sense...Thanks
