Making catalog of RSS feeds to RSS reader is a time and effort consuming task for users who want to obtain RSS feeds of contents they are interested in, as well as the ones relevant to their interests. Additionally the problem, that RSS readers cause unnecessary extra loads at feed distributing servers while checking updates, has been pointed out. In order to solve these problems, here we will propose a novel method to deliver RSS feeds using previously proposed Cooperative Web Architecture. In this new method, linked websites share their renewal information by means of efficient information exchange among them. Users registered to one website of their interest can easily obtain all RSS feeds of the associated websites. Furthermore, RSS reader can be arranged to have features like providing RSS feeds based on link structures or hiding specific feeds to users with no interest over them and thus, the rearrangment and mass distribution of RSS feeds can be made possible. Here, we will also introduce an implemented trial system based on the proposed method as well as its effects and problems using some case examples.
