The google thread manually create a feed treats exactly your problem.
The advice there is to use Page2RSS, a website that claims :
Page2RSS is a service that helps you monitor web sites that do not publish feeds. It will check any web page for updates and deliver them to your favorite RSS reader.
I tried it by entering your datameer.com blog url into their "Page URL" field, hit the "to RSS" button, then under "Subscribe to Feed:" I clicked on "Google Reader". It then passed me to a google page where the button "Add to Google Reader" seems to have really added a feed to Google Reader.

There are various sites that can create RSS feeds from webpages. page2rss.com was already mentioned. See also feedity.com/ and feed43.com/.
(Also see Yahoo pipes tool which uses feedity. Yahoo pipes is useful for combining feeds and other stuff.)
