Reader Poll: How Do You Access Frozen Tropics?

I'm curious about how people generally access the site. If it's Twitter (or something else), would you prefer more links to specific posts? Other changes? Also, if you use an aggregator, do you click through frequently, or just on occasion? I can see the click throughs, but not people who only read through the aggregator. Early results are interesting. Thanks to everyone for voting!

Your blog is one of 18 DC blogs that I look at regularly. I glance at all of the summaries through Google Reader and click on certain posts that jump out at me.

Cool. That's pretty much how I use Google Reader. I'm expecting that it's typical for users.

Except that many people tell me that the site is their homepage, so morning clicks might change the story.

Google Analytics can also provide some very good details on where your readers are coming from. RSS sources can be hard to pin-down, however.

Gonzo,
I definitely also look at the analytics.

Flipboard or Google Currents ... Great social news magazines.

Was Google reader until last week when I decided to try to divorce Google. I'm currently trying out (and liking) NetVibes.

Usually directly, although sometimes using the feedly extension to firefox.

I have the blog bookmarked, but when I see a twitter link about a new post, I'll access that way.
