For years, I used Feedburner to send my blog posts out to people who wanted to receive them via email. But recently I noticed that Feedburner hadn’t updated its feed in over a year, though my RSS feed was up to date. Go figure. It probably had something to do with my getting an SSL certificate and the rest is too boring to think about, let alone explain.
So I dropped Feedburner and had to think about how to serve those folks who want to receive blog posts via email. Here’s what I came up with:
My monthly newsletter will now have links to every blog post that was published the prior month.
Until now, I had listed four or five of my favorite blog posts in every issue of the newsletter. (And to be honest, some months there are no more than five.) But now I’ll go ahead and list all the blog posts.
So if you’re interested in receiving blog posts via email in one monthly email, just sign up for my newsletter. You can do that by clicking on the Newsletter link at the very top of this page. Or just click on the little envelope icon at the top of the blog. My newsletter comes out on the 15th of the month (like clockwork). In addition to the blog post links, you’ll get lots of other organizing info, in the form a feature story, a tip, a photo and maybe even a special offer.
If you’d rather receive the blog via RSS, you can Right-click or Control-click on the RSS icon at the top of this blog and select “Copy Link.” Then just paste the link into your favorite RSS reader. I use Feedly.
