Why? Just because our friends from Google changed something with Google Reader. Before Google Reader was fixed, Feedburner service was not able to count number of readers who are using that feed reader. Now every Feedburner user has complete stats of his feeds. And yes, everyone noticed a pretty increase on the stats - Darren Rowse’s Problogger counter jumped from 10 000 to 19 000 subscribers, John Chow’s RSS readership went from 2000 to 3000 virtually overnight, and the Techcrunch’s one was increased from 170,000 to 270,000. Well, yes, my stats was increased, too. I had 4 subscribers, and now I’ve got 12. Yep, it’s a great time to start to subscribe my feeds, you know I’m going to hit one thousand of subscribers someday!
