I am not sure what exactly gets indexed, but a quick 10 second search suggests that most of the site is in supplemental, so it doesn't offer any long term benefit.

Clip blogs on Bloglines do seem to be indexed, so it might be a good place to clip a few of your own select articles

Andy...

I finally switched from the Google Reader to Bloglines today. Wanna check it out. Just curious if you know or not, does bloglines use "nofollow". I couldn't find it in their source code.

They have a PR8. I was wondering if they're passing link juice to every new subscriber who enters their own blog feed.

Just wanted to say that I am not a fan of the new bloglines beta. I don't like people messing around with the way my RSS feed reading habits look, act, and feel. I am just weird that way. On the flip side, kudos to them for trying to bring about a better user experience. (I hope they'll allow me to keep my "old" look)

The beta version is interesting with the new features and moreover, there's no significant bug problem.
Cheers for Bloglines

I tend to neglect my bloglines account if I've been away for a few days...The posts are just too many to keep up with. I think I need to thin the herd a bit. But...I'll head over there now and check out the beta...and of course add you to my list.

In Bloglines there is a way to first of all claim both feeds, and then say that one is a duplicate of the other so they are thus merged.

Yeah, I realise that afterwards.
One problem with bloglines is that they don't aggregate the different feed urls. I have still a few using my "natural feed", the latest are with feedburner and I have no idea if they are adding the new url I got with Feedburner MyBrand (but I couold check my stats at Fb). Hope not :-)

Oh, that's right, I DO have a Bloglines account, LOL... I have subscriptions in so many places... but ironically these days, if I don't have you in Google Reader, I'll probably forget you. Even then, you have a lot of competition... But if we're linked in Facebook... you might not be able to shut me up. ;)

It doesn't apply for existing people reading feeds primarily with Bloglines.

There is currently an inequality with quantity of Bloglines subscribers for newer bloggers because so many use Google Reader.

A few hundred new Bloglines subscribers, as this is quite new blog actually makes a significant difference in a number of ways, such as ranking on the Advertising Age Power150 I wrote about recently.

Just as bloggers can leverage their readership to launch other blogs, or exchange links backwards and forwards to gain subscribers, or even a simple thing like guest blogging, so encouraging use, even temporarily of a new feed reader is useful.

For years email marketers have exchanged promotions with each other, growing their subscriber base.

It does not seem like it will ad up. They already have our feeds there (for those with an account). I don't like it, I love the actual font and I am soon going to hate ajax if they are to impose i on us.
