How to use Feedburner to burn your feeds?
April 13, 2008
If you have a blog, you should be knowing about feeds and RSS. In Wordpress, the Default URL for your blog will be http://yoursite.com/feed/. I Wordpress, you can get feeds for your comments, categories, tags separately.
Now let me talk about Feedburner. Feedburner is a free service to burn your feeds. All you need is sign-up for a free account, you can now use your Google Account to sign-in, (Google has acquired Feedburner). Once you sign-in, just enter your feed URL to the box as seen below
You can either enter you blog URL or if you know the Feed URL , you can enter the feed URL.
Thats it your Feed is ready, you can now use the Feedburner URL like http://feeds.feedburner.com/Asokans
You can burn multiple blog feeds and the service is 100% free. There are lots of options available like monetizing your feeds using Google Adsense, Email Subscriptions, Statistics of your blog feed and some widgets.
Why do we need to use Feedburner for this?
That’s something you will understand when you go through the Publicize tab of the Feed. I will be coming up with more features of Feedburner soon. Stay tuned in or Subscribe to my Blog by email for free

Modules Invisible, Shown missing in Drupal administration
March 11, 2007
Yesterday, I was working on my Drupal website (Website using Drupal 5.1) and found a strange thing. I had my site transferred from a shared hosting to a dedicated server and the site transfer went well and all the testings positive.
I was then trying to add some modules and uploaded the file and then went to administration - > modules and found something strange. Only a very few modules were showing up. Many of the installed ones and the inactive ones were missing. The taxonomy module was also missing so I could not make any forum posts as the taxonomy module is mandatory for this. I checked my server and all the files were intact.
