Feedburner

You can use your blog's feed as it is without any problem. However, you could also do more with your feed if you use a tool called Feedburner. With Feedburner, you can view statistics for your feed. However, don't be disappointed if your only subscriber is you and one other person.

You can also use Feedburner to easily republish your feed on another web page. Why would you want to do this? Let's say you're using your blog to highlight new stuff in your library, and you want this stuff to appear on your web site's home page as well to get maximum attention. You could pull the feed from your blog to create headlines on the front page. When somebody clicks on the headline, they are taken to your blog posting.
