I want to use Feedburner. I think it’s a great idea that it tracks clicks from a newsfeed. But I just don’t want to be tied into the Feedburner service. If I have lots of people subscribed to my feed at Feedburner – what happens if they change their terms of service or start charging more than I’m willing to pay?
Whine, whine, whine – I’m a whiny consumer!
Update: Holy Christ – within minutes two guys from Feedburner answered my questions and quelled my concerns. That kind of responsiveness deserves my business and I’m going to tell everyone about them.

you can use our service without being tied to feedburner! you can redirect your feed to us, and still have users pointing at your original feed. then when you decide to throw us out of the house, just stop redirecting to us! there are lots of examples out there of folks that do this. Check out http://www.burningdoor.com/feedburner/archives/000425.html for detailed how-to and then check out q&a number 2 on this post http://www.burningdoor.com/feedburner/archives/000688.html for examples

I totally understand your concerns, which is why we’ve tried to get the word out that you can use a redirect trick so you continue to “own” your feed url. Check out question number 2 of our “Very Frequently Asked Questions” here: http://www.burningdoor.com/feedburner/archives/000688.html . Some more detailed instructions here: http://www.burningdoor.com/feedburner/archives/000425.html . Finally, someone else’s account of how they did it here: http://www.37signals.com/svn/archives/000896.php
Hope you give it a try! -
THANKS GUYS!
Holy God that was fast!
Now I get what you’re saying – now that I think a little more and not be a reactive consumer! Hee hee! -

ItÒs the only time of the year I wish I had Sky to watch the whole terrible but unmissable award show live. We used to have Oscar parties to watch it all through the night!

I call him after the awards fiasco, very drunk and tired. “It’s not in the stars,” he says, explaining why it has been impossible for our paths to actually cross.

ÓWant me to massage that?Ô sheÒd said, laying her hand two inches above the bunched pile of sheet at his crotch. Her voice cracked the quiet like a baseball hitting a window.

Two languagey stories in todayÒs Independent, both useable for teaching, I think.

Staying with a poetic theme, here is something I wrote in college. As you can see, I have a rather warped sense of humor.

i could easily excape, given the chance, but i thought it diplomatic to end the situation through a request, rather than through rebellion.
