@No Refunds No Returns ok, where do I find website that uses atom so I can use it as an example for my Java file to test it if its working?

The problem with the RSS 2.0 spec is that it doesn't tell you much about all the different versions of RSS 0.9x and RSS 1.0 (all of which have huge differences — e.g. 1.0 is the only one expressed in RDF)
