Here is a screenshot of how i use RSS. Its from InvisionModding.com, just opening the bookmark gives a drop down list (in this case) of all the latest mods on that site. If i click it, it goes to that particular page about the mod.

Another example, latest news:

Its a BBC RSS feed, it shows (you guessed) the latest world news. When i click a specific one, it goes to that news article. I can have specific ones, for Sport, Music or anything I want.

Lastly using Invision's RSS Export Feed:
On my forum, i exported the News & Announcement forum.

It shows the latest News for my forum, (it's a new board so there is little), however clicking the feed goes to the relevant article. I have a another feed you can choose from my site which shows the latest topics. I use Firefox's built in RSS feed drop down box, but you can use a RSS news reader for any feed. Both as a admin & member you can keep up-to-date about happenings in the world, or in your forum! It is a feature of Invision. You can export (for what i have done for my site) or import another forums one, or a BBC feed.

Hope it helps.
