@Kim – It is. First paragraph under the map. I didn’t include a world map because the only international views were from my mate in Australia, a fellow Mainer who was visiting Iceland, you and Mike in China and Flickr atheist friends in England.

@Steven – Good points, as usual. If people are going to just read the feed what is the point of any of the design?

We don’t have paid ads, so I suppose there is little harm in people reading the posts in their readers.

One other thing…

Some people might be following the blog in their feed readers only, and rarely/never click through to the site; so this *could* explain their geographic apparent absence.

I, for example, only click through when I want to comment. I suppose if you switched to showing only a preview (snippet? Whatever it’s called) of each post in the feed – like you do on The Rhetoric – you might get more human site visits, but that could be annoying. Reading the whole post a feed reader is kind of convenient – it’s pretty much the whole point of feed readers I guess!

PS. The masthead on the site is gorgeous :-)
