For those of you who have been waiting for the ability to subscribe to
feeds from Google News, I'm happy to say you
can now do just that. For instance, if you are a chess fiend, you could subscribe to all the
chess related news with http://news.google.com/news?q=chess&output=rss.
Alternatively, if checkers is more your style, then you could use http://news.google.com/news?q=checkers&output=atom
as the feed. Both RSS 2.0 and Atom 0.3 are supported, so you shouldn't have any trouble
consuming these feeds.
