The 78.3/21.7 method... I promise I didn't steal your idea. I'm not quite sure why that didn't catch on. ;-) In all seriousness though - thank you very much for the compliment. I love what I do so to me it's not even like work. Cheers Ha ha! The 78.3/21.7 method… I promise I didn’t steal your idea. I’m not quite sure why that didn’t catch on. ;-)

A subscriber count of -1 for the week was not what I had in mind when I started my experiment! lol Actually, I realize things fluctuate from day to day and week to week, and that was my first down-tick week since the experiment started. @Pepper: Bless you, Pepper! :-) @Matt: What is really amazing to me is that you manage to combine quantity with quality – not an easy thing to do, but you do it so consistently well! :-)

I've subscribed. I'm also trying hard to grow my RSS subscribers - my site was faulty for much of its first 9 months and this has meant my RSS never grew during that time - so I'm trying to get it back. Please check out my site and subscribe if you like it:) Yes, the numbers do fluctuate but I think it shows how many of the feeds were pulled - so if it says 98 you may still have 112 subscribers.
