<pre wrap=""><!---->I am using BottomFeeder since a couple of weeks now, and I don't want to
go back. In around a minute, I can scan the updates of a dozen sites;
try that with a browser. I love RSS, and installing BottomFeeder is
really worth a try.

Yes, but that means you don't visit those sites as often, now. So, for
an ecommerce site, is that a good thing (from the perspective of the
site)?<br>
<br>
Of course, at least the RSS aggregator (ala BottomFeeder) has the user
visiting at least a portion of the site on a regular basis (they
"visit" the RSS feed), and I suppose there are some users where without
that, they wouldn't "visit" the site at all. But is that the norm?
What about "most" users (if there is such a thing)? Would an RSS feed
mean they would visit the site more? or less?<br>
<br>
I suppose the answer depends a bit on the target marget for the
ecommerce site. But, for Bountiful Baby, I'm starting to have real
reservations on whether it would be worth the trouble. But I'm *very*
curious about thoughts that others might have, and I appreciate Cees'
comment.<br>
