Playing with feeds

| | Comments (2) | TrackBacks (0)

I've been playing around with my blog feeds--specifically, I'm toying with using FeedBurner in conjunction with my blog. To that end, I've got a new feed you can use for my blog which incorporates my flickr photos and del.icio.us links as well as normal blog posts. If you want to try it out, plug this link into your feed reader of choice:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheStagingPoint

(If you aren't familiar with blog/RSS feeds, take a moment to read about 'em--you'll thank me later, I promise.)

If you'd prefer your feed to contain only posts, as is the usual custom for blog feeds, that feed is still available. Links to both are down at the bottom left of the blog.

I'm mostly playing around with this to see how it works, and so I'd appreciate it if you tried out the new FeedBurner link and let me know what you think. It's quite possible I've broken things in the course of meddling with the feeds, so if you notice any problems or annoyances with the new or old feeds, please let me know.

What's the advantage to using feedburner?

Topher, Feedburner lets you track readership of your feed, it lets you combine multiple feeds into one, and it's easy to set up. It does other nifty things as well, but for just a basic blog like mine those are the selling points.

Plus, it's fun to play with all this Web 2.0 stuff :)
