Losing Half My Readers, Thanks Google.

Filed under: Blogging, Google — kingkong @ 12:29 pm

So, I was out partying it up last night for that extra hour we were granted over here in North America. So as a good blogger when I got home I checked to see if my readers increased, I was shocked to find I lost over 40 of my RSS readers, in this great panic i looked everywhere around to see if the same thing happened on other blogs, after checking quite a few blogs i read, I was able to understand that it just wasn’t me and it was due to, a problem with Google reader and Feedburner not counting all the subscription from people who use Google reader as there RSS reader. This has occurred before and the problem should be fixed shortly. So those of you who are scared about your blog dying out don’t be discouraged your RSS feed should be back to normal in a couple of days. :mrgreen:

On a lighter note do you find yourself not having time to read all of your RSS subscriptions, well I do i was patrolling the net the other day and I came across couple other people with the same problem they provided a little ten step list, which helps with reading and prioritization. Here is an excerpt.

Even when you are rushed, there are some feeds who’s content may only be applicable to a short time-span. For example, my subscription to Woot! And Giveaway of the Day are both daily deals, and therefore need to be read before other feeds. Recognizing what is urgent and what is not can help you work when you need, without constantly thinking of your feeds.
