A question from a subscriber

Someone using Yahoo! to look access my RSS feed sent me an email to ask what had happened to me over the holiday - had I stopped posting permanently? No actually, I haven't stopped posting at all. I have posted every day of the holiday, and on average nearly two posts per day.

It seems that Yahoo!, despite sending a bot to run over the feed several times a day (four times in the last hour) hasn't been reporting the updates to my subscriber. Maybe this is the real reason that people move around from feed reader to feed reader. People use one for a while and then find that it isn't working perfectly so they move somewhere else in the hope that the new one will work better.
