Please help.

The RSS-Feed is automatically updated, too.Perhaps I think in a different direction.
Another way is something like this:

You'll need something on the other account to parse the RSS file amigo...
Take a look at this excellent tool...http://magpierss.sourceforge.net/
Here is a technical article on how to parse RSS with php:http://www.sitepoint.com/article/php-xml-parsing-rss-1-0
And lastly, how to use Magpie:http://www.olate.com/articles/214
So, you just point it at the file that Exponential provides, and you're done. It's actually really easy (20-30 minutes, maybe two hours if you have to struggle through it I should think, but YMMV).
