Hehe, naughty headlines : p Distortion of facts, the result of simplyfing headlines. Now trailing on Facebook, where you can add your RSS feed as your “notes” I thought of making my feed partial. But as you mentioned there is a payoff effect. I think the chances are greater for people to read the post the easier it is to read… it all at once. So no RSS feed on Facebook of yet, all my tech-commenting is really not that interesting for old high-school alumni.

The headline of the post is a little naughty, though. But in fairness, no worse than some of the other headlines I’ve read.

As a brand, Photoshop is a broad church, and the idea of Photoshop on the web is in reality a iPhoto competitor, which is entirely feesible.

However, getting a full-blown, full-fat version of Photoshop on-line is an entirely different proposition all together.

So you’re a subscriber, eh? Nice!

Since making my RSS feed full length, I’ve seen a small spike in readership, which is excellent.

So what I lose in direct traffic, I make up for in RSS readership, which is great.

Thanks again

I do think that Apollo will likely be a central part of this online transition. I am just as eager to see how Adobe will compete with some of these other already established editors. Does the KISS rule, which I do like referring to, apply to Adobe’s competitors?
Holiday times, around Christmas, and activities having a latent start meant a great deal of more time earlier. Now I am glad to say (in a way) that absence of comments, only confirms that I am not the only one too busy prioritising more important stuff.
I do however miss giving my point of view and feedback on some of your posts lately. But I do still enjoy read the feeds daily : )

Hi Stephen, long time no comment!

Question is, how will Adobe implement this transition?

Will they be making use of Adobe Apollo? Seems highly likely…
