I used to have an RSS feed years ago, but the impression I've been under is that it's essentially dead technology now? I googled it, and saw articles that said yes, that's the case, though some tech blogs might have a few older techy types still making use of them. One article said it was a 'political statement' to put an RSS button on your site in this day and age.

So I assume that the number of people who'd benefit from that wouldn't be large enough for it to be worth setting up. I was interested in a mailing list because pretty much everyone has an email address, and all you need to do to get updates is enter that in a single box. So the cost of investment is lower than pretty much anything I could think of, since most other things would require having an account somewhere, actively checking some feed, etc.

Maybe I should just start mentioning personal posts on Twitter, for a start. I usually don't because it feels weirdly inappropriate for some odd reason, but it's not like I'm all cool and professional on there or anything, so there's no reason not to really!
