Some fun news @ ReadBurner today - we’ve partnered with Netvibes, a popular personal start page provider, to integrate shared items data from their users as well. Now, our “Share” counts include both shared items of Google Reader users and Netvibes users that submit their link blogs to us.
More thoughts about it and what it means on the ReadBurner blog.
That was quick 
Only 3 days after launching our web version, our mobile version of ReadBurner is now live. This was made possible through RSS and a very cool service called MoFuse. To check it out, just go to m.readburner.com using your mobile browser.
More details on our official blog, ReadWriteWeb, and SheGeeks.
And also, photos of people playing with the new ReadBurner Mobile on Flickr.
Allen Stern, founder and chief blogger at CenterNetworks, is one of my favorite people to shoot the you-know-what with during the workday, so it was only fitting he do the first interview with me about the ReadBurner launch. He also asked me a few questions about Mashable, blogging, and what I like to read outside of tech (short answer: not much).
We just unveiled the new ReadBurner! Rather than tell you all about it, I’m in the fortunate position to be able to link to a number of great reviews that have already surfaced on some of my favorite sites:
Another cool post that popped up was on the Disqus company blog, the service we’re using for comments on stories in ReadBurner. As Disqus founder Daniel Ha writes in his post, we’re working with those guys on making it so comments left in ReadBurner will also show up on their originating blog (”streamback” as Boyd is calling it). I think this will be a great feature for everyone involved - commenters, bloggers, and users of ReadBurner and Disqus. We’re excited to be working with them.
Finally, I did also make a post detailing all of the new goodies and what to look for in the future on our official ReadBurner blog. In all, it has been a very exciting day!
Just like that, another two weeks have gone by. In lieu of a legitimate post, I’ll throw up a few links to some of my favorite recent postings on Mashable, where I’ve been a pretty busy guy of late:
