Fiddling with feeds
I’m currently playing around with Feedburner to track my RSS feed because I can’t use Google Analytics to do that. So I’ve redirected all the feeds to it. Let me know if this breaks anyone’s feed reader.

Satellite has no problems with the change of feed. I presume you’ve set up a redirect unless it’s feedburner.

There are some Wordpress plugins to support Feedburner, but I just stuck some redirects in htaccess and changed the link tag in the page header. Seems to have done the trick.

SharpReader detected the redirect just fine, although there seems to be a problem with the feed - links are in a different color, but they are not clickable (so in fact they are not links).

Thanks for the heads up Paul. It looks like it wasn’t the switch of feeds, but for some reason the last two posts had ‘xhref’ instead of ‘href’ in the links. The only thing that comes to mind is that I used the Google toolbar’s spell checker on those posts. It probably conflicted with Wordpress’ WYSIWYG editor in some weird way. I know when I clicked on the spell check button when the post still had some raw HTML in it, it did very bad things.
