Welcome back feed readers!

After a week ago, before Feedburner announced the moving to Google Accounts, my feed readers count has dropped to the half.

I was a bit upset, but who uses FeedBurner for a while, knows that this could happen sometimes. It only appears in the statistic, and it’s back in a few days, like nothing happened.

But this time these few a days was a bit longer, plus there was this “moving” thing which actually did not resolve the problem, so everybody worried about the lost (or burned ) readers and had another question in mind: was my RSS statistics really authentic? (or should we count the requests manually in a server log? )

For now, the readers are magically back again but with a gap in the statistics. Some folks reported that Google Reader stopped reporting the subscribers to FeedBurner while moving. (Can’t remember the link).

Here’s a shot of my small statistics. As you can see on 17. January I started to “lost” my readers, but on 23. January I’ve got it back. Happy me.
