A word for my longtime RSS subscribers
February 16, 2010 5:00 amAccording to my access logs, the RSS feed for this blog is the most popular thing on my website, by a large margin. I know next to nothing about RSS, so I can’t gauge how many readers I have. Could be two, could be a hundred.
Most of the articles I write here are about technical subjects. I assume most of you found one of them via web search, liked what you saw, and added my blog to your RSS reader. That’s great! I love having readers.
But now, based on the nerd rage I see in my inbox, I suspect I’m going to be writing a lot of articles that are aimed at users of my card games, rather than technical articles. I think these people would be more sympathetic to my plight if they understood it, so I’m going to be writing about that. This is liable to put you off, if you came here for my technical articles, causing you to unsubscribe from my RSS feed.
Instead of doing that, I encourage you to subscribe to a subfeed, in which I’ll post “the good stuff.” Pretty much all of my technical articles include the tag ‘programming’, so I’m going to use that one to for those articles from now on. Here’s the new URL to add to your RSS reader:
