http://loosesuits.com/notes/ LooseSuits Thread: Feed with all posts or only the main ones? en Thu, 08 Jan 2009 13:43:14 +0000 http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72829 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 01:08:20 peroty 72829 <p>See? I'm a smart monkey.<br /> Also a textpattern user.<br /> I see a trend here. </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72817 Fri, 10 Aug 2007 00:16:51 posure 72817 <p>Agreed with peroty, two separate feeds (and maybe a combined feed for the people that like both). </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72654 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 19:05:56 Cas 72654 <p>As peroty said - two feeds. Give me the option. If I'm on the fence/not totally in love with a blog then I tend to get annoyed with oodles of links mixed in with the big posts. However, if I'm head over heals for the blog, then I like to know EVERYTHING they say. </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72649 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 19:02:37 Rich 72649 <p>Gruber recently changed DF's feed to full content -- links and full article content -- from just summary feed of the main articles and I unsubscribed almost instantly. Appreciated the full text, but not all the links.</p> <p>Separate feeds if it's an option, otherwise leave it out. </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72637 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 18:56:49 peroty 72637 <p>2 feeds.</p> <p>1 with just the blog posts.<br /> 1 with all the posts and interesting bits.</p> <p>Then everybody wins. :D </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72616 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 18:46:09 Tyme 72616 <p>Give people an option. I've known many bloggers who lost subscribers because they felt bombarded with the non-article stuff. </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72369 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 06:21:07 cooper 72369 <p>Not all the crap. I would delete a feed with volumes of junk.</p> <p>I feed all my posts but I only post a few times a week. </p> http://loosesuits.com/web/notes/5805/p/1/#response-72359 Thu, 09 Aug 2007 05:15:39 frotzed 72359 <p>I've got a question for y'all and the way you answer will seriously influence my blog's feed, to please think hard ;)</p> <p>On my blog about, oh, 2 or 3 times a week I'll post a "big article." You know what I mean, an essay or whatever.</p> <p>The rest of the time, about 5 times a day I'll post links, videos, etc.</p> <p>If you were going to subscribe to my feed what would you want? Would you want to know every time I posted a link or would you only want to know when I wrote something big?</p> <p>I'm pretty sure that Kottke only includes his "major" posts in his feed, right? </p>
