-This is the base for the RSS feed for each web.
+There are three ways to find out what's new in each TWiki web:
 
-Each web has a [[WebRss]] that should contain the following text:
+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

+- The URL for an RSS feed is `http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/<web>/WebRss?skin=rss`
+- For this %WEB% web it is <http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/%WEB%/WebRss?skin=rss> (or [http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/Main/WebRss?skin=rss&amp;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&amp;search=plugin](http://www.dementia.org/twiki//view/%WEB%/WebRss?skin=rss&search=plugin) is a what's new feed about Plugins.
