    This explains why feedburner displays the comment count using an image link.

    Quoted: By hardcoding a link to a dynamically generated image, the HTML code remains the same, so aggregators don’t think the item has been updated, while the subscriber sees the dynamically generated values each time the feed is presented. It’s a smart hack.

    Burning Questions • FeedBurner Adopts Two-Year-Old, Renames it 'FeedSmith'

    On using FeedBurner with Wordpress...

    Quoted: It's official. We've signed adoption papers for the popular WordPress plugin that seamlessly redirects requests for an ordinary feed (from self-hosted WordPress blogs) to your super-powered FeedBurner feed. This plugin — a toddler in age, but a prodigy with HTTP requests — will be made available directly from FeedBurner as "FeedSmith." It was originally raised by the multi-talented Steve Smith, who's trusting us to ensure its continued well-being.
