Here's how you create an rss feed through google reader : goto : http://reader.google.com A)Log in to your account or sign up for a new one .
Share anything from around the web
Drag this link to your browser's toolbar and then use it to add any item from around the web to Google Reader.
Below this text : There's an icon :: DRAG IN READER Click on the Icon DRAG IN READER and DRAG that icon onto your browser's tool bar ( This is to setup only , you'll not have to repeat any of this while creating new feeds) This will create a new icon on your toolbar NOTE IN READER B)In a new tab or a new window , open your website (e.g. www.msn.com) C)Using your mouse Select(highlight) the text/images that you'd want to appear in feed ( e.g. Interview of the week , or review of the week ) . This is just like selecting text in a text document . D)Leaving the text/image highlighted , Click on the NOTE IN READER icon on your browser tool bar. ( which you created in step A) . E) A small window will appear , asking you to confirm the content that you've selected for your feed . F) If required , Edit the title ( because by default title is current page's title , you'd want separate title for each entry in the feed ) G)Go to Google Reader Settings => "Folders and Tags" and click that gray RSS icon next to the tag "website" to make it public. You’ll then see a new link that says "view public page" – copy the URL of that page to the clipboard.
H)Go to FeedBurner, paste the URL in that feed box, click Next and give your RSS feed some nice title and an address. You can subscribe to this new feed address in Bloglines or Google Reader to see if things are working as expected – they should.
