XML (Extensible Markup Language)

XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a flexible markup language used to store, structure, and transport data in a readable format for both humans and machines. In the context of social media, XML is often used in RSS feeds, which deliver updates from blogs, news sites, or content platforms directly to users or other applications.

By organizing data in a consistent way, XML enables automation and integration—allowing social media tools, aggregators, and content management systems to share and display fresh content across platforms efficiently. It's a behind-the-scenes technology that keeps content flowing and up to date.
