This thread discusses different ways of creating an RSS pheed.

For strategic planning, please visit this thread:

1. Make a blog. Almost all blog platforms will convert posts to RSS. So, anything posted to these blogs can be converted to RSS. NOTE: I believe Google/Blogger uses Atom and not RSS, which may cause a problem.

2. Copy a simple RSS pheed and substitute your own info.

Here's the RSS pheed for the public forum:
http://www.dombom.com/dcforum_rss/DCForumID33.rss

Copy/paste it into a text file and change the stuff. You should be able to figure most of it out.

Save as:
somthing.xml
or
something.rss

The first thing you'll see in the RSS pheed is the "header"...

Now look for the item tags:
<item>
</item>

You have 3 elements:
Link
Title
Description

Just fill them out:
- <item>
<link>http://dombom.com/dcforum/DCForumID33/154.html#15<;/link>
<title>RE: Need RSS Feed Reader that automatically updates</title>
<description>Hey Mark, I can varify what Kurt stated. He did not specify anything, because he wasn't sure at the time. Btw, I am not trying to butt in here, but I did want to say ...</description>
</item>

You can have any number of "items" in your pheeds. Just make sure to delete or add the code for an entire item.

Here's the needed code:

- <item>
<link>Your URL</link>
<title>Your Title/Anchor Text</title>
<description>Your Description/Content<description>
</item>

Paste as many of these "items" as needed.

3. Use RZZ Tuel. Enter a list in "Fatty Format", then fill out the "header/footer" info and RZZ will convert them to RSS.

After saving, upload the file to your site.

Format:
URL|TITLE|DESCRIPTION
URL|TITLE|DESCRIPTION
URL|TITLE|DESCRIPTION
URL|TITLE|DESCRIPTION
URL|TITLE|DESCRIPTION

4. Use Scrubz Tuel. The free version of Scrubz allows for one project. Scrubz is meant to let you pick, choose and edit RSS pheeds, it can also be used to create you own.

Just follow the instructions for Scrubz, delete the exisiting info and insert your own. It will even upload the RSS file for you.

We'll get into Scrubz in couple of weeks. It's a great way to manage your RSS pheed for serious linking.
