OK, It's good. I still have the mixed feelings about the cluttered and multilingual planet, but I'm done with experimenting with adsense. Also I had many reactions that were asking me for including my blog into the planet.
I will not set the posts length for syndicated feeds, because I hate it when I discover other blogs doing that. When I'm reading, I don't want to stop and click somewhere else to get the rest. Maybe I will include an analytics setting for knowing the post that are read and how many times. Greetz and happy reading ;) Alex Osborne wrote: > > Minh Ha Duong wrote: >> >> Please make sure that the feed is not syndicated without discussing it >> with >> Alasal (the author's blog) again.
