It’s no big deal and won’t change your life (well maybe, so continue reading!), but it’s fairly interesting and I simply want to let you know about it.

Poster habits Vs Reader habits

When you press the “feed details” link, you now get a nice little chart like this one:

As you see, the blue line is actually what the blogger posted and the red line represents the moment you read the blog. This is really nice as you can see the posting habits of some bloggers and at what time they usually post their articles. It breaks down everything for you by time of day, day of week and months! What more could you ask for?

What if I really don’t give a damn?

What a useless feature! hum…Unless you have a look at some of the biggest bloggers’ posting habits! I hear all the time “is it worth posting on weekends?”, “What’s the best time to publish?”, etc. It’s all there folks! Google is doing the dirty work for you, all you have to do is analyse the charts.

Share your findings!

If you guys notice a trend, feel free to share that with the community!
