Thanks,
It semms that it is easy to write the XML file for a Feed. But how does NewsReader know the page (pointed by feed link) has been changed, what are the changes, updated time? I have not got the idea yet :)
The NewsReader /polls/ the feed regularly.
As such there is no mechanism for notifying changes.

I went thru the same thing. Basically all you need to do is make an XML file
and put it on a web server some place. Then provide the link. People can
copy the link and paste it into any rss reader, or if their browser
understands what to do, it will add the rss feed link to the integrated
reader.
So you need to create the XML file, save that file to your web server. Then
provide a link for people to use.

Here are some links I came by

How to support RSS in a website so that people can subscribe? I googled and
found lots of documents about how to subscribe and about news readers, but
not talking about how to support RSS functionality in a website?

Thanks,
Dave
