How to create RSS
Creating an RSS feed may seem daunting at first, but online software tools allow you to create and test your feed quickly and easily.
Remember that the RSS feed for your podcast is what other people's "podcatchers" (iTunes, Pluck) "grab" when they subscribe to your show. That's why your feed is so important.
We'll discuss basic coding concepts here, but primarily as a background as most people would rather generate a feed with online tools or software like FeedForAll .

Syntax for RSS
RSS defines an XML grammar (a set of HTML-like tags) for sharing news. Each RSS text file contains both static information about your site, plus dynamic information about your new stories, all surrounded by matching start and end tags.
Each story is defined by an- tag, which contains a headline TITLE, URL, and
DESCRIPTION. Here's an example: ...

Defined in XML, the Rich Site Summary (RSS) format has
quietly become a dominant format for distributing headlines on the Web.

started using RSS. 0323
Each RSS channel can contain up to 15 items and is easily parsed using Perl or other open source software. If you want more details on creating RSS files see Jonathan Eisenzopf's excellent article in the February issue of Web Techniques. But you don't have to worry about the details, we've made it easy to create your own RSS channel with free open source scripts, all Web based. More on these later.

What is RSS ?
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a lightweight XML format designed for sharing headlines and other Web content. Think of it as a distributable "What's New" for your site. Originated by UserLand in 1997 and subsequently used by Netscape to fill channels for Netcenter, RSS has evolved into a popular means of sharing content between sites (including the BBC, CNET, CNN, Disney, Forbes, Motley Fool, Wired, Red Herring, Salon, Slashdot, ZDNet, and more). RSS solves myriad problems webmasters commonly face, such as increasing traffic, and gathering and distributing news. RSS can also be the basis for additional content distribution services.
