One of the wonders of having XML feeds is that you can keep up to date with what's going on quite nicely from one place instead of having to go through hundreds of different bookmarks, remembering what you've seen and what you've not.

For some time there's been a hidden RSS feed for this site - an RSS 0.91 feed of the blog headlines and summaries. And now there isn't. But the two people who used it, should not fear as you should be using a different feed instead. Automagically. Honest.

A press release about RSS feeds isn't going to set the world alight. One that starts off telling you to go off and reuse the feed in exciting ways might just.

I was surprised to see the site hits go up 7000 last month, a large number of people hitting my post about my recent RSS changes, and a 1000 referrals from Mark Pilgrim's Dive Into Mark site.

Yet another silly RSS error. Will they ever end?
