Hitting 100 Subscribers
March 13, 2009 – 1:59 pm | by Daryl TayOn Tuesday, I checked my Feedburner account and was pleasantly surprised to see this:
RSS Subscribers
It’s taken me 14 months since January of 2008, but it’s finally happened. I suppose 100 doesn’t sound like much to many, but the idea that there are 100 people in the world who are interested enough in what I have to say that they want the content delivered straight to them really makes me feel fulfilled.
I’ve always said, the best thing about being active online is the community. Thank you, everyone who has commented, linked to me, sent my link to someone else, come for Social Media Breakfast | Singapore, Twittered or Plurked me or basically has interacted with me in some way to help me get to where I am today. I’d love to get some feedback though: what can be improved? What content would be really compelling for you?
If you’re curious to find out how you can get the latest content delivered to you instead of bookmarking and returning to this page, check out this handy guide for help.
Let’s hope the journey to 200 subscribers will be as fulfilling, and happen in a shorter amount of time!
[edit: Given previous observations on Feedburner, the numbers might fluctuate, but I suppose faulty data is better than no data]

No number of subscribers is ever small — even though my # of subscribers may be a lot smaller than the big time bloggers, I’m consistently humbled by the number of strangers that consider my writing worth reading. Congrats on hitting a milestone.
