FeedBurner is Out of Flame Today
Blogging November 4th, 2007
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.

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

Thanks for making my Sunday. Found your site from GoogleTutor’s post this afternoon.
Mine are cut in half again today. Nov. 9. I wonder if it’s the same problem?
Mine never went back.
