I just wanted to take a second or two to inform everyone that I have switched my Blog's email distributor from FeedBlitz to FeedBurner. I've been using FeedBlitz to distribute my posts via email for several months now, and even though I had no real problem with their distribution system... it was time to upgrade.

I've been chatting with fellow Blogger and colleague Michael Roebuck, regarding his email distribution system (FeedBurner) for his Blog and found a few characteristics that set it a part from FeedBlitz. Two characteristics, among others, that made the switch-over worth the hassle of doing so were:

1) Readers can now sign-up without having to open an account. With FeedBlitz, readers who wished to receive my content via email had to open a FeedBlitz account, which required a bunch of personal information and setting a login / password. I personally hate having to create accounts for shit like this, and often won't. With that, I no-longer wanted to make future email subscribers go through the same hassle.

FeedBurner offers a 3-click process. First, enter your email address and click "subscribe". Second, enter a validation code (to make sure that you're not a robot) and click "enter". Lastly, click an activation link sent via email. Done!

2) I currently use FeedBurner to distribute my RSS Feed, as well as to monitor my Blog's reader/subscriber stats... and it's nice just to have everything under one roof. If you're a Blogger and are not using FeedBurner, be sure to check it out. They offer some very awesome tools for distributing your Blog feed, and now offer the means for email distribution.

So what exactly does all this mean? Well, for those who've signed up to receive my Blog posts via email, this will be the very last email you receive... UNLESS of course you re-sign up. I was able to get in touch with most of my email subscribers last night to warn them of this switch-over, however I couldn't get through to all of you.
