What’s the take-away?

You know, I may be slow….I know that and I accept that fact. I use Bloglines, as many do and Feedburner has always sync’d up with Bloglines, so basically the 21 people subscribed to my feedburner feed are reflected in my feedburner stats and there are 20 or so other people subscribed in different ways. In reality, I have 43 people subscribed to different feeds with Bloglines, but only 21 are included in my feedburner stats.

I don’t know why when someone subscribes to my blog thru Bloglines, it gives 5 different feeds: atom, index, rss2 and wp-atom + feedburner. I changed the feeds in the code to be feedburner early on. Admittedly, I haven’t given this much thought at all, until now, when I have a few minutes, but if someone can give me some direction on how to eliminate all of these feeds, I would appreciate it.

I’m kind of a number freak, it doesn’t matter, in the big picture of things, but it’s fun to watch the numbers and see where people are reading this from. You people literally read this blog from all over the world. Sometime, I’ll share some of those stats. The host I have used for many years, not for this blog but for other sites I have done, had bad stats, basically non existent. I have recently discovered that my new host provides great stats, so I’m all over that.

So what’s the take-away from this post? (I had a boss many years ago that would always say that at the end of meetings….what’s the take-away?) So, I ask now, what’s the take-away…….absolutely nothing. I have probably wasted about 27 seconds of your life(unless you are a slow reader, if so, I have probably wasted close to a minute of your life, but you can’t blame me for your slowness) But seriously, if you know a quick fix to reduce the number of feeds I have, let me know.
