Waddaya mean, subscribe?
RSS is a file format used for subscribing to messages, such as blog entries or news articles, which have been posted on some of your (hopefully) favorite web sites.
Instead of checking those sites every day, you can just check your feed reader.
Once you set up a link, it's like checking your email. Look for the 
(or XML) button, copy the link location, plug it into your reader, and the new messages appear in your inbox.
Mozilla Thunderbird is a free open-source email reader which also lets you receive RSS syndicated messages.
The Mozilla Firefox browser lets you view current headlines as "live bookmarks", using RSS. There are lots of other free news aggregators available too.
