RDF format: http://www.totse.com/totse.rdf (works great with KNewsTicker)
RSS format: http://www.totse.com/totse.rss (with short descriptions)
Internet Explorer "Active Channels" format: http://www.totse.com/totse.cdf (Haven't tested this one for a while. M$ keeps changing the Active Channel spec. I know it works with Win95/98/NT and IE 5.x, your mileage may vary.)
Let me know what headline reading tools you successfully use to grab and read these. I'm going to make an entry in the FAQ and list the news tools that work with each format.

Thanks man! I've added the RSS feed to Syndirella. I have installed RSS feeds at both of these websites, which I run: http://www.thenetw0rk.com http://www.askpeeves.com
Judging from my server logs, the newsfeeds are a success. Hope they work out here as well.
I am using 2k pro, ie 6.x I grabbed the .cdf news feed no problems, it prompted me to add totse.com to hte favourites list. Thanks of rhte cool feature.
EDIT: If is hover the mouse over the articles I get a short description.

You need software known as a news aggregator to read these. Personally, I use Syndirella, although the lead coder has just announced that he's ceased all development on the project. But there are many such programs available.

I am now testing to see whether this works with the Trillian rss plugin. I will post if it does. Thanks.

Anyone who used the plugin would have been able to tell by the first line of the code.
code:<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
</pre>
Trillian likes 1.0 :-)
Trillian hates 2.0 >:-(... At least untill Trillian pro 2.0 comes out.
