PMBT,
The first link is talking about Query Notifications, which is a low level concept and requires some manual work to configure and set up (such as creating messages). The second link is about SqlDependency, which is an abstraction layer built on top of Query Notifications. When using SqlDependency, you don't need to worry about creating database objects - they will be created for you when you call SqlDependency.Start() in your application.
Thanks,
Pawel
