Step 1. Don't use Google Chrome because then you can't see my blog entry.
- il 16y agoI only use Chrome, works fine for me. Also, according to my analytics, 40% of my readers use Chrome, so unless they're all just constantly refreshing my blog like mindless zombies without seeing anything, the issue is probably on your end. What issue are you experiencing?
- keltex 16y agoThe blog entry flashes and then disappears. Works fine in Firefox. Using 9.0 beta... perhaps this is the issue? Regardless, the menu on the blog overlaps "Strategies for rapidly acquiring and monetizing lots of traffic." in both Chrome and Safari. Edit: You're right. It's an extension. Ad Sweep.
- il 16y agoThanks for the feedback. I'm on Chrome 9 beta and it looks fine for me, it's probably an extension. Try incognito mode. Edit: Now I'm wondering why this extension perceives my entire blog as one giant ad :) Good point about the menu overlapping the tagline, I'll have to work on that. It's a fluid width layout I believe, so they overlap on smaller/netbook/low-res screens.
- jasonshen 16y agoActually, I'm on my mac and the menu is overlapping here too. Good post Ilya =)
- pedrocr 16y agoI'm not the OP and I can see the text in Chrome on Linux but one issue it does have is if the browser window is small enough that the title wraps the subtitle goes behind the buttons. BTW, I would have subscribed to your RSS feed (a few times before even) if it was full content.
- davidmat 16y agoI second the full RSS feed request
- il 16y agoUnfortunately, fulltext RSS feeds are easy prey for scraper/spam sites, which is why most blogs don't use them. Nowadays, it looks like most people use RSS as more of a notification when new content is posted.
- pedrocr 16y agoI won't follow a blog that doesn't have a full RSS feed, it's just not worth it. I can't actually remember another blog I came across recently that didn't have full content, and the 100+ I follow include pretty mainstream stuff. So I'd be curious as to how you got to this conclusion. Also, why do you worry about spam sites?
- il 16y agoDifferent industries have different rules I suppose. Allright, I've enabled fulltext feeds for the time being, we'll see how it goes. Spam considerations aside, it's a tradeoff between subscriber counts and pageviews. I'm not entirely clear which metric's growth is more desirable.
- pedrocr 16y agoSubscribed. I'd be curious to find out what you conclude about the experience. Thanks.
- rgrieselhuber 16y agoI use Chrome and it worked fine for me.
