Google-Feedburner runaround

January 30, 2009 by Jen

Just as well I’m fairly active in the blogosphere, twittersphere and a few other electronic spheres because I’ve been hearing about people having to move their Feedburner account to a Google one.

I login to Feedburner every now and again and all I had to do one day was sign in with my Google account. I didn’t receive any notification to do anything else and so I didn’t.

But apparently I’m supposed to change my Feedburner address and add a 2 in it in some places.

To say I’m quite annoyed is an understatement. I’m not so annoyed that I have to move to something else that is Google, although they’re taking over Microsoft in the takeover stakes, but I’m annoyed at the fact I haven’t received any information about it.

Surely, an email to all Feedburner customers would have been in order with step-by-step instructions on what to do?

I’ve found something along those lines over here.

So this post is a bit of a rant about what a hassle (and I nearly wrote another word starting with H but this blog is the one place I don’t swear more than bloody) it’s been and to make sure that this appears in the feeds okay, both for me and for you.

I’m now off to make some food to take to the pool. Ta ta.

    How irrittating–and now I”m wondering why I haven’t done it too. Sigh. Just what I want to deal with, another migration.

    Michelle, it wasn’t very hard or too time consuming, just more annoying for the lack of communication from Google. And my feed still works, so I’m relieved about that.

    I know nothing about that? Perhaps because I am a blogspot blogger it isn’t necessary?

    Jeanie, if you’ve never had anything to do with Feedburner then you need to do nothing. It’s only if you use Feedburner to redirect your blog’s feed that you apparently need to do something.
