Where are you my very beloved readers? … I just noticed that I had a drop of 700 subscribers! AHHHH!
If you have a moment please check if your readers has this feed url:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/RandomGoodStuff
Also make sure that the url of RGS’s main page is:
http://www.random-good-stuff.com and nothing else!
I hope now it was a wise decision to change RGS that much … do you even like it?

I am here. I have the URL, the feed and I like it, very much so. WordPress us such a good platform. It makes things look really good and professional. I never realized there was actually an individual behind RGS (I guessed more like a company or something), so I’m happy to say hello and glad I can reassure you (at least what my readership is concerned). Good luck with RGS.

Hey Nils,
ahhh I needed those words, badly. Thank you.
No, no company here .. it’s just me alone. Is it an honor that you thought it was a company?
I like the look of your blog …. smooth!

I still get your feed through the A Little More Random Please.
Still read you blog everyday, just cut the direct feed since it is duplicated in the new one.
So you are down one and up one.

RockyF,
thank you for the note … reading RGS content twice wouldn’t be good
Thank you for giving the Network a chance and I hope you like the content so far.

I was subscribed to RGS via an atom link and read it through Bloglines. But the atom link quit working so I came here and saw this post. Might it be something that changed when you changed over to WordPress?
I like the new look!

Hello Sandra …
thank you for your post … and of course for your nice words.
I am afraid you have to update the Feed Url to
http://feeds.feedburner.com/RandomGoodStuff
If you insist to use Atom, let me know
Thank you for reading … have a great eve.

Oh yes. I updated it to feedburner as soon as I saw it in your post. It’s working like a charm now. No probs on this end.
Happy Holidays RGS!

I get my shot of random goodness through Google Reader. Perhaps they wait until a feed has exactly 701 readers and then cache the whole thing, reducing the number of readers by 700?
That’s what I would do if I had, ah, infinite storage.

Thank you again Sandra for the note and the official Happy Holidays post will be up soon
Graeme I just don’t know .. I was on an average of 1600 readers a day … 700 are just depressing.
There are 2 options why …
1. People just hate thew new look and they unsubscribed.
2. They god lost somehow!
Well I am just going to continue like nothing happened. And the rest will find back to RGS or they can suck it .. ho ho!
