Learning About Feedburner

Today I read an interesting article in the NYTimes about a site www.politcalbase.com. NYT describes it as Web 2.0
I went to check it out and saw that it is also a blog. Its RSS link (in Safari) took me to their Feed with extras that I would want for my client’s blogs. On the page http://feeds.feedburner.com/PoliticalbaseBlog, is a Subscribe Now! box.
Did some more investigating and signed Kurt up with a Feedburner acct (Google now owns Feedburner)
Haven’t finished investigating but i did get this:
!!!! http://feeds.feedburner.com/KurtAndersenBlog !!!!!
That is what I would want an avid reader of to find, a way to subscribe to the client’s blog. I subscribe to Richard Lacayo’s TIME Looking Around Time blog and now I have a link to it on my Yahoo! home page. It tells me the title and when it was posted.

Well, I have not figured this out completely. If you look at the above address in FireFox and you will see what I want. But it is not giving me the Extras I want in Safari though it does for politicalbase.com. Maybe I need the free Pro account. Tomorrow.
