Garoo

14 sep. 2007

I’ve been thinking about this, and about the pathetic statistics for some of my satellite blogs, and finally concluded that I just can’t imagine any reason at all why anyone would want to keep a subscription to the garoo.net feed instead of the global, aggregated cedric-bozzi.com feed (which has been the default feed on this blog for a couple months). It makes sense for someone to subscribe only to #FF00AA, or Beware The Frog, but not what has become a vague tumblelog where I publish a couple links and TV show reviews a week — you’re not interested in garoo.net unless you’re interested in garoo, and in that case you should want to get the global feed.

So I’m setting a permaredirect today from the garoo.net to the cedric-bozzi.com feed, which includes my articles from #FF00AA (tech stuff), Beware The Frog (video game stuff) and all the Regarde… sites (visual links). Basically everything I publish online except chats LOLorNOT and Twitter (that may come later, when I get around to coding it).

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.garoo.net to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.

Mh je pense que c'était plutôt par ignorance qu'il y avait un feed global sur cedric-bozzi.com. Enfin en ce qui me concerne c'était le cas.

Ben, oui, je sais, c'est pour ça que je l'ai mis comme feed par défaut il y a un mois ou deux et qu'aujourd'hui je justifie le fait d'upgrader tout le monde de force :o)

Hmm, tiens, je viens de réaliser que si ça se trouve il y a des agrégateurs mal codés qui vont mal interpréter le 301 Permanent Redirect et ne plus mettre à jour garoo.net du tout :)

Résultat : 35 posts dans ma turbine à blog aujourd'hui alors que je déteste les clowns !

NetVibes ne se plaint pas en tout cas. Ca a l'air de fonctionner.
