Chinalyst & Feedburner

 

Yep, the Great Firewall of China is at it again, and many of the China blogs have already covered the fact that Feedburner is blocked in China.

First thing, Chinalyst's RSS is also available through http://www.chinalyst.net/rss.xml , so you don't have to use Feedburner to get the Chinalyst RSS feed. I won't be able to track it for statistics, but it's important that you know this option is available.

Second thing, a request to the blogs aggregated at Chinalyst - I'll just quote one of the Chinalyst reader/bloggers - Chris :

I think those China blogs who aggregate with Chinalyst, you may want to change your feed URL in the Chinalyst configuration for your site if you have previously provided a feedburner link (I'm talking to you, Danwei).

The problem still remains when I see your post in a Chinalyst feed and I want to click on it to be sent to your site to read more, feedburner gets in the way. You know the rest...

 

To change your feed address, login with the username you registered the blog with at Chinalyst, go to your blog's page and select edit, then replace the feedburner address with a direct RSS or Feedsky address. 

If you have any thoughts or requests regarding this issue, let me know by commenting here.

Thanks, and happy Chinalysting.
