Here's a copy and paste of my file with details removed.... Call the file rss.xml, put it in the site's root. Then link to it from the home page or wherever so people can get to it.

The first part of the file doesn't change, it just sets up the feed. After that there are "items" which are the "entries" or "site additions". Each new page goes to the top of that list of "items".

Let me know if you have questions.
