For everyone who subscribes to the FiveBoxes news update via email or RSS, we have a few important changes to inform you about. Currently, all of this is handled by a service known as FeedBurner. We signed up when FeedBurner was still an independent company, and we were happy with the service. In May of 2007, Google acquired FeedBurner for $100 million. With the current leadership at Google doing things that endanger the privacy of its users, we cannot in good faith and conscience continue to use any Google products.
As of September 1, we will be discontinuing our use of all Google services. This includes RSS and email subscriptions, Google Analytics, and all other things we used Google for.
For those of you with an email subscription, we will migrate your address over to our new self-hosted email service. You will not have to re-subscribe.
For those of you subscribing to FiveBoxes via RSS, you will need to manually update your feed link to this one: feed://www.fiveboxes.com/?feed=rss2
We also are making a few other changes around here as well:
If you have any requests or ideas on how we can make FiveBoxes serve you better, please contact us.
Thanks for your readership.
