Did Google’s FeedBurner Crash and Burn?

Okay, the world isn’t destroyed but if you haven’t real­ized — our sub­scriber count shows a big fat ugly zero! Every­thing is back to nor­mal now thank­fully.

When I saw it for the first time, I was seri­ously con­tem­plat­ing the fact that I might have writ­ten some­thing so awful that it scared away ALL our sub­scribers — but luck­ily when com­mon sense set­tled in, I fig­ured out that was just a stu­pid thought.

A day full of guest posting

by Alex

Today at Blo­gus­sion, there has been so much going on with guest post­ing I fig­ured I’d write up a quick post about it all tonight. Guest post­ing is some­thing you should even­tu­ally (if not, imme­di­ately) get into when you blog. In short, guest post­ing is going to some­one else’s blog and writ­ing a post for them. The ben­e­fits of writ­ing guest posts are you can get expo­sure for your blog (usu­ally you can add your link in your author bio), a new chance to share your opin­ions and insights with a new com­mu­nity, and a ton of other stuff…

Pingoat, gone to the slaughter house?

by Janith

Pin­goat has been one of the most exten­sively used free ping­ing ser­vices on the web. For those of us, that haven’t used it before  —  it’s a sim­ple tool that allows web­mas­ters to ‘ping’ or ‘notify’ search engines and other ser­vices that you got new con­tent!
