Two thousand subscribers

My friend Feedburner tells me that we have, as of last Monday, over 2,000 subscribers to our RSS feed.

Wow.

Ron and I together using all of the different avenues to consume an RSS feed couldn’t even come close to a hundredth of that. Thanks for making room in your subscription list for our mostly coherent ramblings.

For our new subscribers: Welcome! Belly on up to the bar. There’s plenty of room. For our long-time subscribers: Thanks for sticking with us.

Sláinte!

p.s., For those of you who only read us via RSS, we’re trying a new look out here. Stop in and tell us what you think.

Welcome new subscribers!

I’ve noticed that the RSS subscriber numbers here have suddenly increased by quite a bit. I think I’ve discovered the reason for it.

My RSS reader of choice is Google Reader. One of the helpful features that Google Reader offers is bundling blogs on related topics together, making it easy to find lots of content on the stuff you find interesting. (You can see them at http://www.google.com/reader/view/#directory-page.)

Well, they seem to have recently created a “Beer” bundle (among others) and Hop Talk is one of the ten blogs featured. I’m glad to say that the other nine blogs there have long been on my reading list; you’d be well-served to include them as well.

In any event, I just want to extend a welcome to all of our new subscribers.
