This tutorial concentrates on how Perl can manipulate RSS so as to convert any news site into an RSS web service. In this XML-based format, the information is described in a format that simplifies the news down to a few key elements. This uses many modules and teaches how to download pages, parse HTML on them and to encode the information in RSS. Thus, this is used to provide an overview of the latest news on a site.
