For those out there that read my blog, you can now subscribe to it via FeedBurner. What advantage does this have over my regular feed? Well you can automatically receive my delicious links and Flickr photos in the feed in addition to my regular blog posts. Very voyeuristic!

Today I added the dasBlogExtraMacros.aspx">extra macros that Vasanth Dharmaraj created (thanks Vasanth!). They include links to Delicious, Technorati, and Bloglines so you can see who is linking to your posts (which is pretty much nobody for me but what the heck it's still fun to add them).

He provides instructions but I thought I would provide a little bit more information just to help people out who might get lost.

1 - Download the ExtraMacros zip file that contains the ExtraMacros.dll file. Upload this dll to your bin directory.

2 - Follow Vasanth's instructions to uncomment the snippets in the web.cofing file (located in your root Dasblog directory).

3 - Add the macros to your itemTemplate.blogtemplate file located in the themes directory (if your main theme is blogXP like mine you will have to add it to that file. I added my macros to the <div class="itemFooterStyle"> tag just above the <br clear="all"> tag and below the <%enclosure%> tag.

You should now be able to see which blogs are linking to your post.

Be sure to visit all the options undfer "Configuration" in the Admin Menu Bar above. There are 16 themes to choose from, and you can also create your own.
