How to Merge Atom Feeds
Atom Syndication feeds can be thought of as live bookmarks. They allow users to receive live updates -- along with meta data identification tags -- from a website, through another website or utility. Instead of checking multiple websites for updates, users can visit one website -- or launch one utility -- to receive updates from several sites. And with the help of a feed utility that supports merging, you can view your Atom feed updates in one continuous stream of information.
