I love the tagline to Feed My Inbox “RSS made easy” and surprisingly enough it was. I was apprehensive at first and it did not help that unfortunately the tutorial video did not seem to want to play but it seemed doable or so I thought and I went for it. The website is actually quite easy to use and understand.
I was being blonde all around so I also didn’t read the instructions well and tried to add all the library blogs suggested instead of just 1. Of course being on the free account it inactivated the sixth blog that I added. Which brings me to my main point only 5 feeds being free makes me reluctant to return to the website. It seems quite restrictive and I (not a fan of RSS at the best of times) just can’t be bothered. Also not to whinge too much but It doesn’t even send an email to confirm that the feeds will start (that might be just me)
I think I would only recommend this site to customers who had this specific query (none so far but you never know). It does have the plus of being easier to explain

I've fielded a few queries at MC and MM regarding RSS although, to be honest, it can be quite a clunky mission to clear feeds on a public pc *sigh* There was a time when FeedMyInbox was actually free with unlimited feed subscriptions - possibly a year or so ago. Then when I was investigating simple versions of RSS and saw they'd reduced it to 5 I did briefly wonder if I should let it go but, as a gentle intro, it serves its purpose. Bummer that you didn't get a verification email - I did :(
