hello, I am a new member to the Ruby forums. I am presently designing a small program in Ruby that is able to read RSS Feeds. However, I am not sure how I could connect an RSS Feed to my Ruby program. I have just started leaning the Ruby programming language and I am slowly understanding the syntax. Therefore, I am searching for ideas and help regarding this issue and I would appreciate anyone’s help. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to connect RSS Feed to a Ruby program? If you do, I would appreciate it if you could post a reply. Thank you for your help. ---

I could not find any good online examples, but in the pickaxe book 2ed, there is a good example at page 728. ---
