RSS-reader feed updates when app is suspended

So, Ive made Windows Phone app that contains rss-feeds. I would now like to add the possibility for toasts to popup when a stream is updated. Ive read up on how to use Toasts to notify the user, but how can i make my rss-reader periodically poll the rss-feeds for the latests news when the app is suspended in the background. Example code would be highly appriciated!

Check the "Background Agent Sample" Windows Phone Code Samples to see how you can create a periodic background agent, that will allow you to pool the rss feed(s) and show a toast notification to the user!
