Add a link to the RSS feed to each relevant page.
e.g. <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml"
href="http://drewclayton.com/Whirlwind.xml" />

IE7, Opera, FireFox, etc., will autodetect the feed and allow the user
to view and/or subscribe to it via a standard control. For other users
you can add a link within the body of the page as well.
