- stignordas, on 02/01/2008, -0/+4Very cool, nice to see visuals how bloggers are doing this. In some ways its too bad that RSS feeds have turned into this, showing users 20 buttons that each say 'add this' or 'subscribe.' The original idea was so elegantly simple, a standard format. Now its so muddy, there are so many choices each screaming for attention. Don't get me wrong, choice is good, we (as web developers) just need to come up with a better way of presenting it. None of the examples here have really solved it.

Having the buttons on the same page is something I believe is a benefit to users, rather than clicking through to Feedburner, and then another subsequent click to a feed reader, or a popup for email.
The graphic I use is created with a neat PHP script called Conflagration, which uses the Feedburner API and GD library to update daily. - mossiwo, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1Andy, I think your display rock big time! is the code available somewhere?

- anubis24, on 02/01/2008, -0/+3It's true, there are a lot of choice, but these are some really good presentations.
- mossiwo, on 02/01/2008, -0/+2Is great to have the most popular and relevant options handy, I think the options displayed are clever and sexy, I really think is awesome how they individually approach the subscription appeal.
- halil0310, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1Personally, I'd very much like to see FEED options taken to another level, these are some examples of the importance of it...
- darkhia, on 02/01/2008, -0/+0It's confusing having many options, I only use igoogle for almost everything. I really think is better one icon than the whole pinata around!
- Bamborzled, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1Call me a minimalist, but this is an example of my preferred RSS link display. No clutter and it's very simple:
