RSS Feed/Reader
I need design a web page that can read RSS feeds as it is implemented in “My
Yahoo” page, is there any sample example available for these type of web
application?

The ASP.NET RSS Toolkit is all you need
to implement RSS in your ASP.NET 2.0 apps.

Make sure you get version 1.0.0.1...

Why 1.0.01?

Have you tried Argotic? Its the most robust library that has been developed
and has surpassed the RSS Toolkit which is now at 2.0 playing catch up and
way behind.

No, I haven't. I'll download and test.

Thanks!

As others have posted, there are some pretty sophisticated Syndication
libraries available. However, if you are just getting started, you can read
any RSS feed by simply requesting its url with the DataSet.ReadXml(urlToFeed)
method.
The "Items" collection, which can be easily databound to various controls,
usually shows up as table number 2 or 3.
