## How to Find out What's New?
There are three ways to find out what's new in each TWiki web:
1. [[WebChanges]] shows recent changes
2. People subscribed in [[WebNotify]] get notified of recent changes by e-mail
3. A news feed can be exported in RSS 1.0 format for TWiki:Codev/TWikiSyndication. RSS news readers like TWiki:Plugins/HeadlinesPlugin can display the recent changes
## RSS Feed Usage
- The URL for an RSS feed is `http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view//WebRss?skin=rss`
- For this %WEB% web it is (or [http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/Main/WebRss?skin=rss&contenttype=text/plain](http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/Main/WebRss?skin=rss&contenttype=text/plain) for plain text RSS)
- You can also create a custom feed based on a search. Add a `search=value` parameter to the URL, e.g. [http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/%WEB%/WebRss?skin=rss&search=plugin](http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/%WEB%/WebRss?skin=rss&search=plugin) is a what's new feed about Plugins.
## RSS Feed Internals
Each web has a [[WebRss]] topic which includes part of this %TOPIC% topic. This topic is the base for the RSS feed and generates an RSS 1.0 feed for TWiki:Codev/TWikiSyndication.
The [[WebRss]] topic in each web contains the following text:
----
%WIKITOOLNAME%'s %INCLUDINGWEB% web
%SCRIPTURL%/view%SCRIPTSUFFIX%/%INCLUDINGWEB%
(the description of the web). TWiki is a Web-Based Collaboration Platform for the Corporate World.
