Yep - that's how I use it.

I've found though that I don't use RSS feeds that much these days though given to the increasingly powerful influence of twitter. It's very all-consuming.

Anyhow - thanks for the feed back folks. I've just put a piece up about Carlos Tevez and his almost inevitable transfer. Have a read if you want.

I liked the Tevez text, mate, but I think it would benefit a little if you were more concise. Less is more, and all that.
Mix long, winding paragraphs, with succinct ones. Avoid repeating thoughts and information.

My two pence. Will defo read more of the blog when I have more time.

Interesting thoughts on Tevez, but wouldn't you say your apathy had something to do with the fact that we are more than able to replace him? In the olden days we dreaded transfer news as it might mean Garry Flitcroft or Kinky or Joey Barton were on their way, and we couldn't attract a suitable replacement. These days its more a case of easy come, easy go, let's get someone else in.

A suggestion: give the exclusive rights to announcing new blogs to Dazby and his blue tuesday thread. That way it might make it worth opening.

Probably, yeah. We're a little spoilt for choice these days.

And I agree the article isn't as concise as it could be.

I don't even know what that blue tuesday thread is - my bad.
