FREE e-book "8 Things to Know About Veterinary Care"

February 26, 2010

Hey, kids. I did a FeedBurner thing (now owned by Google, I guess) that allows people to subscribe to the blog via email. It’s in ye olde sidebar to the right. It seems to be working OK. Not great, but OK. The problem? There is a sizeable delay between when I post new blog entries and when they arrive via email.

For example, I just now got an email with Thursday’s post and Friday morning’s post in it (late afternoon local time).

If you are some kind of FeedBurner guru and know how to fix the delay, do let me know.

Otherwise, if you have a hankering to get our news as soon as possible, I might recommend using the RSS feed in your “reader” of choice, which I have not tested too much but appears to work in real time. Though, then you don’t get the benefit of our new lovely design.

Our RSS function is in the wooden box below our photos.

Coincidentally, my writing/blogging friend Melanie over at Frugal Kiwi just posted on how to use RSS and readers, if a tutorial or more info is needed.

Otherwise, you can always just visit us when you have the time.

P.S. Melanie is the one who helped me figure out the email option this week. So, thanks, gal! I surely needed the consult.
