Site Updates – Need Feedback

by Andy Brudtkuhl on August 26, 2008

I am working on some updates for this site and am looking for some feedback…

First off is the Daily Link Digest – do you like that? I think it creates value by having me filter news for you. I just don’t know if you find it annoying or not. I have thought about removing it from the main feed and offering it through the Daily Digest feed here. I also tried a weekly digest last week and I did not like the results. And last I’ve thought about removing it from the homepage of the site opting for it to be in its own view when you want it.

Secondly I am getting rid of most of the sponsor links leaving three advertising slots left that will be managed by Google Ad Manager. This means less ads for you to see and more value for the remaining slots.

I am adding a FriendFeed stream as an enhancement to my “Social” Page.

I am developing a blog schedule for this blog – which I hope will increase my posting as well as creating more value for you… As I compose this schedule – is there anything specific you would like me to write about? Once this schedule has been finalized I will also be re-organizing my categories and moving that list to a more usable position.

Leave your ideas and feedback in the comments or shoot me an email.

Thanks

I’ve been subscribed for a while, and I’ve noticed that the Daily Digest posts regularly show up as ‘new’, even though they have been marked as read several times. I’m not sure if that’s by design, but I wanted you to be aware of it (and perhaps see if others are aware, too), and if something happens where those are moved to a different feed, I’d be ok with that.

@Tony interesting – what RSS reader do you use? I think I am going to remove the digest from the main feed and provide the two separately. Researching that today. Thanks for the feedback!

NetNewsWire Lite on os x. I appreciate you considering it, but if it’s just me, don’t sweat it.
