Ever since I enabled feedburner for my feed at http://www.GUYSonVIDEO.com/feed/ some sites using scripts to read my feed have stopped updating.

Anyone else have this problem?

Also, am I killing my search engine results for those that are updating since the links point to feedproxy.google.com instead of directly to the post on my domain?

Why would you want to use feedburner?

It's an easy way for people to subscribe to your blog updates. They receive a nice little Email (spam free) from feedburner with a summary & links to your posts.

They also provide some stats through your google login.

I dunno, so far it seems to be creating more problems than benefits.

That's why I posted in the first place to get some other users feedback.

Ah ok, I wasn't sure what they do. The email sounds like a good thing, but I wonder if people who use RSS feeds dont just have their own feed readers, even google got their own one now.
