"myRSS allows you to create your own RSS feed for any news-oriented website. You don't need to know how to program or understand any of the XML and RDF incantations to get RSS to work. Simply type in the address of the page you want the feed produced from and let myRSS do all the work automatically. Your feed will be instantly available and better still you can use it for almost any purpose for free (read more in our terms of service).
You don't have to limit yourself to the big news sites either. How about keeping tabs on a competitor's activity; being instantly informed of new career opportunities; or making sure your collection is up to date."
However, their page inviting you to Create Your Own Channel urges,
before you go any further are you absolutely sure that the website you're about to create a channel for doesn't already have one? The best place to check is Syndic8, a directory of just about every channel in existance. Please search Syndic8 before creating your channel here as any channel hand-produced by the website themselves is likely to be better quality and more reliable than any produced by one of our robots.
Now, surely, added to this service (or front-ended to it) should be one that checks with Syndic8 (and/or other such services) before creating a new channel. And if Syndic8 has the channel, that's the RSS feed myRSS should provide. (oh hear my plea, Lazyweb)
