[...] counting Friendfeed stats in their statistics, and the follower count for many Feedburner users shot up as suddenly as their Twitter followers and other Friendfeed “subscribers” began to count. [...]

True Tamar. You figure with Google’s vast resources they’d be able to add tons of new features to FeedBurner, but alas it’s stayed pretty much the same since their acquisition.

Adam, that’s a great idea. But I won’t expect Feedburner to do that – they haven’t innovated in forever.

Keith, your use of FF/Twitter is exactly why FeedBurner should pull these stats, maybe they should organize them differently but they should be pulled in and available. More data is good!

I don’t disagree with you Tamar, personally would like FeedBurner to post "true" blog subscribers and "social" subscribers and total subscribers on the home page for the feed stats, but in the end if you want to drill down which subscribers are FF and which are feed readers you can.

It’ll pull those multiple feeds Justin. For instance, I have this site, my personal blog, sportsfan4, and we demand videos all pulling into my friendfeed and all the subscriber counts for those four went up because of the friendfeed. So basically, it runs off what you import into friendfeed.

So, it’s how many people subscribe to your friendfeed account is roughly many extra subscribers each of those blogs will get.

Make sense?

I was surprised as well when I check my stats and noticed they all took a big jump. I figured it was just Google updating the stats since I have seen similiar jumps before without any reason.

But not it makes sense since they are pulling in a friendfeed stats. Just curious though, does it automatically know which FriendFeed accounts to pull the data from? I have multiple feeds in Feedburner but only have one friendfeed account. I’m guessing it uses your URL from the FriendFeed page?
