notice to ebothy rss subscribers

Thu, Jun 18, 2009

Hello eBothiers! I’ve just noticed that Feedburner have been taken over by Google, who have destroyed access to my account:

“Unfortunately, there is currently no way to restore access to the account XXXX. We plan to offer a process for recovering accounts without email addresses or Secret Question/Answer combinations, like this one, eventually."

Is that right? eeee-ven-whaa-leee? OK, I don’t want to know. Literally. I haven’t looked at the Feedburner stats in months and months. So I’m going to turn off the Feedburner plugin at the end of June 2009. If you want to keep reading the witty banter to be found in the scribulations of the eBothy pages, please point your RSS reader to the normal RSS feed, which will come online on June 30th 2009:

If you’ve just stumbled across this blog, please use the above URL to subscribe via RSS. Using the normal RSS URL won’t make the output of the eBothy seem any more normal though. It’ll still be the same ranting rubbish as before!

If your RSS reader detects no signs of life at the eBothy after June 30th 2009, it’s prolly coz you haven’t updated to the normal RSS URL. Either that or I’ve managed to stuff the whole thing up. A quick check of the site will clarify matters, though not the meaning of most of the content!
