Bloglines and Feedburner

May 28, 2005 in Other Stuff with 2 Comments

If you are using a newsreader like Bloglines to catch my blog, please skip to the last paragraph. For those of you who are on my blog through a more conventional approach (i.e. typing in the address or linking from a search engine), read on.

Some of you may be wondering, "How in the world does Tony have the time to keep up with so many cool bloggers and websites?" I’ll let you in on a secret. There’s a clever little website called Bloglines that does all the work for me. For those of you who are trying to keep up with my blog and others, you may want to consider using bloglines. It’s a free tool that you can use to subscribe to as many blogs and news feeds as you’d like. Whenever someone adds a post to their blog, including me, your Bloglines feeds will automatically update letting you know there’s something new to read. Right now, I’m subscribed to 74 different sites. It’s very simple to get started. Just sign up, and then begin subscribing to the blogs you want to follow.

For those of you who are already using Bloglines or some other newsreader, I’d appreciate it if you’d update your feed for my blog. Jason hooked me up with Feedburner today. That will make it easier for me to monitor the traffic on my site. Ultimately that means better content for you to read. Everyone wins. Thanks for your help.

    Thanks, Tally. The data in Feedburner is starting to populate. That’ll be very helpful.

    It’s pretty fascinating to see what types of newsreaders people are using. Bloglines is by far the favorite; however, there are several others. I’ll throw out some of those stats in the coming weeks in case some of you are curious to see how my numbers compare to what you’re seeing on your sites.
