Neatly Sliced

Utom Box created the most beautiful Web 2.0 icons. I have implemented a few of them in this site. There is currently no Digg icon, but one of the icons provided by Digg looks Web 2.0 enough to match.

I also started using FeedBurner for my RSS feed. I was confused regarding FeedBurner before. I had thought that it was automagically creating its own feed. In reality, FeedBurner takes the feed that your blog already generates and processes it all fancylike. For example, with FeedBurner I have added the feature to “Email This”, “Save to del.icio.us”, or “Digg This” right in the RSS feed itself. Additionally, I can derive other statistics regarding the feed. As the user, you receive no significant additional benefit other than the “Email This” and bookmarking links.

One day I will change .htaccess so that the old feed automatically rewrites to the FeedBurner feed, per the instructions in this “Using FeedBurner” WP post. In the meantime, update the feed at your discretion – it makes little difference to me.
