… my old feed, that is. On an administrative note, I’ve decided to let FeedBurner handle all of my RSS goodness. I know all of the cool kids are doing it and, well, I’ve honestly been feeling left out.

So, to all my blogging and travel friends who subscribe to the Vagabondish RSS feed, I’d love it if you’d re-subscribe to my new feed by clicking on that massive orange tile to the right.

Thanks to all!

You need to install this plugin. This will forward all attemps to read your old feed to the Feedburner feed.

Was going to suggest that plugin myself, probably the best way to go about it really.

Have a read of this tip

Thanks, Steve! The plugin works like a charm. The amount of free Wordpress plugins available never ceases to amaze me.

Dan, thanks for the heads-up on Feedburner. Seems like the crux of that post revolves around one or both of these two things happening:

Should Feedburner break down or decide to charge money for the service on the future you will lose the subscribers.

Neither of which I can see happening. FB is a well-established online company so I doubt they’d just go belly-up. And if they ever did decide to start charging people, they’d likely have a wide scale revolt on their hands. I guess it’s a gamble, but for now one that I’m willing to take.
