Hi Louis,

There are several approaches you could take to this:
1. Set up a persistent search for the site in Google (use the syntax “site:[domain]” and pump the RSS feed from that into Google Reader
2. Use a service like Page2RSS (http://page2rss.com/) to create feeds from a page you want to monitor

Those are a couple of initial thoughts. Hope they help.

Dave

Useful post – but what if I want to get updates from a website that doesn’t have a RSS or other feed? Can I somehow create a persistent search to effectively create my own feed – then send it to Google Reader?

Thanks,

Louis
