Warning: Important technical jargon to follow…
If you use a news/blog reader such as MyYahoo or Bloglines to subscribe to AttentionMax, I encourage you to subscribe to my new content feed here. You just go to the upper-right-hand box and select the reader you usually use. It’s that easy. You then can delete the old feed in your reader.
Why am I doing this? I used to offer the popular “RSS 2.0” and “Atom” subscription feeds, but I’m experimenting and consolidating with Feedburner. Feedburner appears to be leading the way in online content syndication systems and measurements. That means I can get better subscriber metrics, better reader behavior metrics, and cool options to experiment with interactive and multimedia within the AttentionMax syndicated platform.
Finally, I’m working on a redirect for existing subscribers, whereby people on the legacy RSS 2.0 and Atom feeds will be redirected via Feedburner without even knowing it. The problem is that I’m my only programmer, and I’m not very technical. I hope for a seamless transition, but I can’t guarantee it. I’ll do my best. Better yet…just re-subscribe via Feedburner if you enjoy AttentionMax.
Thanks, and sorry for the inconvenience.
Hey Max, I’m sure you’ve already got this info, but it’s pretty simple to redirect to Feedburner. Just change the name of your main RSS feed to something like indexfb.xml and point Feedburner to pick that up. Then with the feeds people are subscribed to, just put a redirect in .htaccess that says: Redirect 301 /index.xml http://feeds.feedburner.com/Attentionmax
You can then redirect the Atom, etc. feeds to go to index.xml (or whatever you used to call your main feed) and that will put them into the same loop.
That’s how I do it and it works just fine. There are probably better and more complex ways . . .
