FeedBurner and FeedBlitz have been setup for the main RSS feeds for the site. Those in the Blogosphere know of these two tools very well but for those who do not, let me give you a visual representation (of my personal blog's feed).
Sadly my stats used to be triple that. But that is besides the point. FeedBurner gives us analytics on RSS feeds that I do not readily have available. FeedBurner can also add widgets to your feed and site, even has handy MT code to do it. In another post I will explain how evil I am (BOFH, after all) by pushing all users, human or bot, to the FeedBurner feed. With a condition and a rule it is easy to set things up so the user gets the feed I want them to get.
FeedBlitz is an RSS to Newsletter tool, and "sister" application to FeedBurner. We will be using it to send out daily newsletters. Considering that FeedBurner is now part of the Google family, you can be sure it is a service that will be up and running for a while.
