If your see your FeedBurner subscriber count cut in half today, don’t panic, it does not means your readers “fired” you.  It simply means that Google’s Feedfetcher is not reported in the total count today. Clearly a glitch - not as fun as this other one, when I picked up 50K bonus readers, but hey, I’m sure  it will be fixed soon -perhaps by the time you wake up and finish coffee.coffee.

Update: Confirmed: Google Feedfetcher had a hangover.. it’s clearing up now.
