    I'm glad I'm not the only one, but it seems like everyone's RSS Feed subscribers are down a LOT today... anyone else notice on their blog?

    I only have about 174 but then today it dropped to 132... I saw other people talking about John Chow and his dropped down to 10K from 16K... DAMN!

    They haven't counted Google Readers, if you check yesterdays stats against todays you will see that Google hasn't been counted. It will back up to normal tomorrow.

    This happens a few times a month if i'm not mistaken. The scary thing is that new blogs with only 10 subscribers, 9 of which subscribe through google, will look a lot deader than it actually is.

    So my count went down to 28 from 38 :(
    Never thought feedburner would show frequent glitches before using it.

    Since Google bought it, Feedburner experienced a lot of glitches.

    One of my blogs went 4 -> 0 -> 1. I know I'm subscribed to it, and get the RSS every day, so I don't get it when it goes to 0.

    That means you didn't check your RSS feed for yourself the previous day. If you are subscribed to a feed and you don't bother logging in to check it or whatever, you are not counted.
