Bumping up the numbers

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I’m sure that most of you who blog and pay attention to the number of subscribers your RSS feed has saw a nice little bump in those numbers now that Google is reporting subscriber counts for Google Reader and Personalized start pages. Today in my Feeburner stats I saw Google go from “fetching the feed” once a day, and only being counted once, to having 172 subscribers using Google. That actually boosted the number of feed subscribers significantly higher that I anticipated when I started using Feedburner to get a better idea of how many people were reading the blog last month. Very interesting, indeed.

Liked what I saw from the first batch of photos, going to be uploading them to Flickr over the next few days, I’m sure. This one was especially cool, just because it’s always fun…

    It’s a hyper-connected world, deal with it!

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 2 minutes

    It’s 2008, yet I’m constantly surprised how much some organizations don’t think about how much we’re all connected to each other, and to information. Seriously, if you feel like it’s important that someone receive news from your organization directly, in a personal phone call, don’t issue a press release, post it on your website, and…
