I’ve been futzing with my RSS feed the past week or so and figured now was as good a time as any to mention that I’ve setup a Feedburner feed to replace the basic WordPress RSS feed that was originally used on the site. So for any of you using the old RSS feed, which is probably many of you, please switch over to the new feed.

I also added the option of subscribing through email. I have no idea what that means, or to be honest does, but it seems like people like that sort of thing. So there is that.
Also wanted to note that the March DVD Giveaway is over and the winner is Christopher Amis. So congrats to him on his winning the direct-to-DVD remake of April Fool’s Day. I’m still tossing around what to giveaway for April. I like the idea of giving away terrible movies, but I do have something that people might actually want. So if anyone of you feel strongly one way or another please email me matt.gamble@wherethelongtailends.com and let me know if you want me to keep giving away crappy movies or if you’d like me on occasion to giveaway movie related swag that is actually cool.

i am still getting updates from the original RSS feed, so i think either/or will work fine. the feed burner feed just records more stats. i have the email subscribe thing on my own site…and it does just what it says. it sends you an email when there is a new post. with the headline and first few lines of the post.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure if it sent the entire post as an email or just a blurb. Personally, it would drive me nuts to get email updates because they would just fill up my inbox, but if someone is good enough to keep up on it more power to them.
