Atom feeds for new-post notification

Blogger can be set to publish Atom feeds (machine readable form of the blogs), which can be read in RSS/Atom aggregators, which can notify the user of new posts (so that we don't have to check the website for new posts). More information from Blogger and Wikipedia.

Site feed for this blog is already enabled, at http://nturobots.blogspot.com/atom.xml.

There are lots of aggregator apps out there, and I have tried only one. For windows users, SharpReader seems good. For linux users, I recommend Akregator.
