How do I find my rss feed?

<h2><span style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; color: #333333;"><span style="font-size: 17px; font-weight: bold; color: #444444;">What is an RSS feed?</span></span></h2>
<p>RSS stands for "really simple syndication." It's basically a standard way of formatting information so that it can be easily and automatically collected and passed between different entities. RSS format makes it possible to collect your favorite web pages (known as feeds) in one place- when new stuff is posted, you'll know. </p>
<p>It's kind of like Twitter, but for bigger content, like blog posts. Take, for example, a blog you love to read. If you know you can't visit the blog page everyday but would like to read the latest posts from time to time, you can use the blog's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS">RSS feed</a> to subscribe. Your feed reader automatically grabs the newest blog post and saves it for you until you have time to read it, just like Twitter grabs your friends' latest updates for you to read. Twitter provides an rss feed for several of its public web pages:</p>
<ul>
<li>profile pages<br /></li>
<li>replies pages</li>
<li>search pages<br /></li>
</ul>
<p>Feed icons display in the browser when viewing these pages, and RSS buttons are also in the sidebar of each page. If you want to read a person's updates without signing up for Twitter, or without visiting the site, just use the rss feed to subscribe.</p>

To understand how this works, look at a blog profile on Twitter:</p>
<ul>
<li>http://twitter.com/cnn<br /></li>
</ul>
<p style="color: #333333; clear: left; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 1em; line-height: 1.4em; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left; padding-top: 1px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 1px; padding-left: 0px;">Every time the <a href="http://www.cnn.com/">CNN website</a> updates its blogs, the Twitter profile automatically updates with a link to the article. This is very helpful for those who already have a website and use Twitter in tangent.</p>

<h2>How do I find my rss feed? <br /></h2>
<p style="text-align: left;">If you'd like to keep up with Twitter updates without logging in, try subscribing to Twitter via <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS_%28file_format%29">rss feed</a>.
You can subscribe to someone's updates in a feed reader, track your own
feed, or the feeds of yours friends. Find an rss feed for a Twitter
page in:</p>
<ul>
<li>the sidebar of any public profile page, under the 'Following' pictures</li>
<li>by clicking the rss icon in the address bar at the top of the browser (look for the rss icon (shown above) at the end of the browser's URL field: you can click the blue icon in Safari, or the orange one or RSS button in Firefox.)<br /></li>
