Yes – it’s called the RSS widget & it’s part of WordPress core. See Appearance -> Widgets.

I’m not sure it auto-updates. If it can, where can I setup the refresh interval?
I’m SO new to RSS. If I move the widget over, will it create an RSS feed for MY site or will it allow me to bring in content from other sites. I don’t want to do the latter; I need to create an RSS feed of MY site for search engines…

This widget will bring content from other sites to yours.
For RSS of your site, you don’t need a widget or extension…it’s part of the core…visit the correct URL
From: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds
There are times when you want to tell someone your site’s feed address or URL, or you need it to submit it to search engines and directories, many of which now accept feed URL submissions. There are four possible URLs for each of your feeds. Any of these will work.
http://example.com/?feed=rss
http://example.com/?feed=rss2
http://example.com/?feed=rdf
http://example.com/?feed=atom
If you are using custom permalinks, you should be able to reach them through this usage:
http://example.com/feed/
http://example.com/feed/rss/
http://example.com/feed/rss2/
http://example.com/feed/rdf/
http://example.com/feed/atom/
I saw that. I’m trying to give something to Amazon but when I used the URL, substituting my website name for “example” I received an error message. What am I doing wrong?
oh wait…found it, tried it, worked. wow, simpler than I would have believed. Thanks

Back on topic, is there a WordPress RSS plugin that will auto-update?
