Email feeds Interesting, most people read Amy over at Contentious by email... I wonder what % of those are long-time subscribers (the 34% of 'old school' readers).
It's certainly not the cohort (Stephen commented recently that he has the same experience in the ed tech field... although he can probably lay claim to having the audience many moons before webfeeds even came onto the scene). My reckoning is it's more the content & nature of the blog. Amy is continually linking to interesting and relevant articles which inform her readership, so is Stephen, I'm rambling on about what they're doing... I wouldn't subscribe to an email feed doing that :o) But I would through a webfeed!
There are answers lurking in this email vs. webfeed thing that need to be got at more than they have been (i.e.RSS as email etc.), methinks.
