When I set up feedblitz almost 3 years ago it was the recommended way to go as feedburner was having serious problems with their mail subscriptions. Time to reevaluate.

From a reader perspective, Feedburner is preferable to Feedblitz because it allows you to sign up for e-mail subscriptions without the rigmarole of setting up an account. (That is, Feedblitz requires you to set up Feedblitz account whereas Feedburner doesn't.)

Katherine - thanks for the mention. and Kathy (it's the day for kath type names to respond!) - I'll have to check out dosh dosh. I think reading Seth's blog is very legit use of business time. His ideas really spark cool ideas for me. Sarah - I agree - and thank you!

But I particularly like this red one. :) I've used Bloglines for a while now and the other day the title of your blog on my list suddenly changed to Contemporary Textile Art. I thought I had lost you for a moment but it had the same little logo button. Then I read that you had changed your blog....I guess it picked up on that right away.

Find myself skipping those posts. Even those with catchy titles, etc. Too many great blogs out there with full feeds to read.... Love the quilt. Use of color... wow.

I've been passing on that extra click a lot lately, I figure I'm already wasting too much time reading blogs. The feed reader allows me to get a visual and then I can make a decision about how much time I want to spend reading the text. I'm also a Seth Godin fan, I also added in Dosh Dosh (discovered via Seth's blog) to my reading list. I rationalize those reads as 'business related activities'. Another cheer for full feeds.

Kim - glad to know I'm not the only lazy one. Karen - I totally agree about the blog's real setting. It's quite an adjustment for me to go from my old reader, where each post lived in it's native blog home, to bloglines. It feels naked in some ways. Efficiency has it's price I suppose.

But when you're behind and hurrying to catch up, the full script with photos on a reader is appreciated.
