I&#8217;m now going to explain why you should care, for different levels of geekiness.  Read until it stops making sense or you stop caring:<br \/>\n<b>Level 1<\/b>: Nothing has changed about the web page.  Keep reading at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nothingseveredyet.com\">www.nothingseveredyet.com<\/a>.  Nothing to see here.  We don&#8217;t need no water.<br \/>\n<b>Level 2<\/b>: There&#8217;s this cool way you can keep up on all the blogs you read.  You use a newsreader, like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloglines.com\">Bloglines<\/a>, which grabs the latest posts from this and other blogs, and puts them all on one handy webpage.  I don&#8217;t get Google ad revenue since you&#8217;re not visiting my page, but that&#8217;s OK, &#8217;cause you&#8217;re my BOY and I LOVE you.  Anyway, I am using this thing called Feedburner which makes it all work better.  Try it, you&#8217;ll like it.<br \/>\n<b>Level 3<\/b>: I changed my syndication format.  Let me know (dan -at- danshapiro -dot- com) if you have any problems reading it.  It will probably reset you &#8220;unread items&#8221; count&#8211;sorry about that.  Please take this moment to verify that your reader is pointing to www.danshapiro.com\/blog\/index.xml to take advantage of it (and simplify my statistics tracking).<br \/>\n<b>Level 3.14159<\/b>: index.xml, atom.xml, and index.rdf are all being redirected to http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/NothingSeveredYet.  This is a &#8220;smartfeed&#8221; that will automatically convert itself to RSS, atom, or whatever format your reader requires.  It also lets me aggregate my site statistics so I can see how many readers I have on my feed, thereby feeding my monstrous, out-of-control ego.  Please <b>don&#8217;t<\/b> point your reader directly at the Feedburner URL.  If things don&#8217;t work out with the good boys at feedburner, I&#8217;ll just turn off redirection and it should automatically revert to the old method (and reset your unread items again&#8211;sorry &#8217;bout that).  Should you point to the feedburner URL directly, your feed will break completely if I disable it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n(Yes, I watched Eurotrip, Old School, and Clue while convalescing.
