Thanks Stuart! I didn't know if suggesting your own feed was frowned on. I thought maybe it was an "I like this feed; take a look at it" type thing. I will suggest my FeedBurner feed and see what happens. I'd like to limit exposure to the FeedBurner feed (instead of the Blogger feed) because 1. I want the FeedBurner stats, and 2. FeedBurner will translate my Atom feed into RSS, where appropriate. Can't figure out why I would want to put a link to my original source (Blogger) on my blog. What am I missing? I'm technically challenged, but I'm learning. I don't know the protocol for this forum. Should I reply back to everyone who replies to me, even if it's only to say "Thanks," or is that considered not appropriate because it just takes up space. If I change my subscription to "Digest," as someone suggested, would I be sure to get all of the replies specifically to me? If I do have occasion to give my Blogger feed (see under my sig, below) do I need to include the atom/xml part? I'm wondering why I would need to do that, since using just the rest of the link, without the "atom/xml" works to get me to my blog. Thanks, Stuart Joanna http://family-friendly.blogspot.com/atom.xml http://feeds.feedburner.com/family-friendly
Stuart Whitmore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Joanna, If you just added your blog info in your profile, this does not actually add it to the feeds database. You need to actually Suggest the feeds, and you can Suggest both the Atom source and (I believe) the FeedBurner version. (I haven't taken the time to experiment with what FeedBurner has to offer yet, so I'm can't speak from experience about that.) Once you've submitted the feeds via the Suggest feature, there is a process that the feeds will go through automatically until (usually) they reach the "Awaiting Approval" status. Once there, the feed can be featured, and you can request (via this list) that someone review the feed for approval. When it is approved by a Reviewer, it goes into Syndicated status.
