Life with FeedBurner
Posted January 31, 2005 – 4:52 pm by Yakov Shafranovich in WebsiteSome time ago I decided to switch my feeds to the new FeedBurner service. After reading some reactions, I decided to change my feeds to point to my site while using a temporary redirect to forward them to FeedBurner. This way, people still point to my own feeds and I don’t have to worry about FeedBurner going down at some point and taking my feeds with it (or starting to charge).

Of course, I’m very thick so I don’t get it. Can’t you just get this information from your web server’s access logs?

The problem is that I had a button pointing directly to the FeedBurner feed on my main blog page. If FeedBurner dies, anyone going to that feed will no longer be able to retreive it. HOWEVER, if I keep my feeds pointed to my own server with a temporary redirect to FeedBurner, if FeedBurner dies people are still coming to my own site and I can redirect the feeds back to my own generated ones.
