Instead of checking several websites for new information, you can check all of your RSS feeds in one place.

How?

Easy! Just navigate to a favorite URL, locate (via the graphical user interface) the site feed metadata (specified using XML), duplicate the hypertext markup language code and add it to specified aggregator software or dedicated browser feed reader.

If you understood that, then this should make

perfect sense.
