Three Weeks In and Still Kicking
I’ve been criminally lacking on updating this blog since taking a writing position at ReadWriteWeb. I admit it. But I do have an idea about the direction I want to take this blog, and hopefully, if I keep plugging at it, people will find it to be useful.
However, I’m mostly writing this today for two reasons:
- To figure out if writing a post will ‘reboot’ my broken FeedBurner feed into working, and
- To gloat a little about just how much I’ve been blogging over at RWW recently.
Of The First Part
So, starting with the Google FeedBurner issue. I have no idea what it is, and I honestly haven’t had much time or motivation to futz with it recently. I suspect it is similar to something that happened to Louis Gray recently (which you can read about here), but I’m not sure at all. If I view the RSS feed in Mozilla, I get something that looks like this:
But if I look at it in Chrome (which strangely has absolutely NO support for viewing RSS feeds), I get this:
So, I’m not sure what’s going on. I’m going to post this, and if that doesn’t fix it I guess I’ll go into the Feedburner "hit it with a hammer" section and see if I can knock something loose.
Of The Second Part
They’ve been keeping me busy over at RWW. Generally, three posts a day, every weekday. That’s 15 posts a week, and I’ve been doing it for several weeks now. There’s actually a handy little RWW link that lists all the posts I wrote, and the number of comments on each. So, that’s awesome.
Plus, week I went to SXSW Interactive on a press pass, and that was a total blast! It was so amazing to finally meet everyone that I have been reading and following in online, I forgot about blogging at all until a couple of days in. Sorry, RWW.
Update: I figured out the RSS feed issue. It was a plugin called GooseGrade. Updated the plugin and the feed is fixed. Yay!
