The Firefox and Internet Explorer 7 Feed icon.This is not a subject on which I hold a neutral view, so it's a good thing I'm right! Everybody should use RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds. If you have a website, make sure you generate them, and if you go to websites where new content is offered through RSS feed, subscribe to them. In fact, we should shun websites where the orange icon with white stripes is not in evidence.
