Taking a Breather…

I was on the phone with a total stranger this morning (don’t ask). Anyway, after exchanging the usual pleasantries, she asked, “Why do you sound so sad?”
You know, short of us hearing our voice recording, we never know what we sound like on the phone. So we have to rely on the other party to tell us what we sound like. So well, I told her my sad tone was because it is Monday today. The beginning of a week, with a ton of work glaring back at me, all needing to be completed before the long Raya holiday break this coming weekend. The upside is that THAT is something to look forward to.

I do have a small favor to ask though. Can you make me feel a tad happier today by updating your links for my RSS feed? Last week, I finally got down to burning my feeds using feedburner, in a quest to find out how many people *care* about what I wrote everytime I waxed lyrical about something. Right now, the number of subscribers for my feed is showing up as a big fat ZERO. So could you please just update it? Thanks a bunch!

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go bury my head in my work…

    I do have you on my feed! Did you install the feedsmith plugin? it collates all your feeds whether thru feedburner or no. And cheer up! Monday’s nearly over 🙂

    The Giddy Tiger says: Oooh, I just installed that plugin. Thanks! But somehow the number of readers still shows as ZERO. Why ah?

    I can’t use the default feed that’s on your browser? no worries… I’ll just add this on anyway!

    yay, Monday is gone! now for Tuesday…

    The Giddy Tiger says: Great! Woohoo…. *strikes Monday off the list*

    The only time I ever know if you’ve updated is when your FEED tells me so! Hmm? You have a different feed? Feeding Frenzies?

    The Giddy Tiger says: All’s well now. You can keep my previous feed too 🙂

    Giddy, I recommend you this plugin. I found it via Che-cheh’s many moons ago. It “redirects all ways to access your feed to your FeedBurner feed so you can track every possible subscriber”.

    That way, you don’t really everyone to update the subscription url ;p Anyway, i’ve updated mine lar so…. heh 😉

    The Giddy Tiger says: Thanks! I installed the feedsmith plugin just now. Let’s hope it works.

    The Giddy Tiger says: Oh, you don’t? Aiyo, you should la, it saves a lot of time, especially if you have so many hundreds of posts to weave through!

  8. rinnah says:

    Hmm, I’m not sure which feed I’m using… I’ll go check! Here’s a fiver to keep your spirits up, m’dear!

    p.s. No wonder you didn’t chat with me today… but then again I had a blue-black Monday myself. *sigh*

    The Giddy Tiger says: Thanks for the fiver tag. I knew it was coming… 🙂

  9. michelle says:

    Hey I do have your feed on my google reader. I think something is not right with your feeder.

    The Giddy Tiger says: Yeah, it was tracking only subscribers who subscribed to my old feed, but all’s well now, I installed the feedsmith plugin.

  10. wuching says:

    The Giddy Tiger says: Yeah, both feeds work now 🙂

  11. WS says:

    I remembered I had to resubscribe coz yr old feed won’t work few months ago.

    The Giddy Tiger says: That’s odd. I didn’t change my feed at all up till a few days ago. But good to know that it works.
