1. A method, comprising:
- associating, by one or more processors, a content feed including first content from a first content provider and second content from one or more second different content providers with an identifier specifying that third party content is to be presented with the content feed;
receiving, by one or more processors, multiple requests for the content feed from various user devices;
providing, based on the identifier associated with the content feed and in response to a first request of the multiple requests, first third party content in the feed without generating an alert to other user devices that submitted the multiple requests;
providing, by one or more processors and based on the identifier associated with the content feed and in response to a second request of the multiple requests, second third party content in the content feed without generating an alert to other user devices that submitted the multiple requests, wherein the first third party content is different than the second third party content; and
generating, by one or more processors, an alert to the various user devices in response to a change to the first content or the second content.

Abstract
Disclosed is a method for processing content published on-line so as to identify each item in a unique manner. In some implementations, an RSS feed is received from a publisher and a unique identifier is identified for each item in the feed. Each item then has third party content or advertisements associated with the item based on the unique identifier. The feed is then stored and, when appropriate, updated. The augmented feed, which contains the third party content and the items in the feed, is provided to user devices.
