In addition to updating the software that runs both my blogs, I also took the opportunity to further consolidate the feeds. Which means that everyone who’s currently subscribed via pages like rss.php or atom.php will be redirected to the primary feed URIs, http://intepid.com/feed/ and http://blog.jujusoft.com/feed/

A while back I decided I didn’t want multiple feeds because a) it meant that tracking subscriber numbers¹ was harder, and b) I don’t see the point in providing multiple flavours of feeds. All readers support all major formats, so why should a subscriber or publisher have to care? If it turns out that RSS is a bad format to use, I’ll just change my feed to Atom (or whatever) and no one need ever know.

Also today I went and saw Transamerica, and I’m very glad I did. It reminded me that I do sometimes enjoy a film which didn’t cost 50M+ to make. Unfortunately the "official site" makes it look like a crappy comedy, which it is not… And HOLY SHIT I can’t believe that the lead was not actually male or transexual– I just looked up IMDB to see what else Felicity Huffman has done and realized that she is a Genuine Girl and one of the four principals from Desperate Housewives. Seriously I am now awestruck!

1. As of now intepid has 50 subscribers via Bloglines and I’ve no idea how many via other sources (probably between 50 and 100). After the new redirections have kicked in (usually takes a few days) I expect Jujublog to have around 8-10 via Bloglines. UPDATE: Crap, I knew it was bad luck to mention any numbers! My subscribers count just dropped to 49 after being at 50 for months– Where did I go wrong…?
