		<description>Okay, I&#039;ve just updated my RSS templates to have a [more...] indicator if the excerpt isn&#039;t the entire entry.

		<description>Tony,

By my own choice, I only publish a small section of any article in the excerpt. I actually like people to come to my site to read the full article. Also, a lot of my articles are fairly long, and I think long articles in feed readers are somewhat annoying.

I am aware that only publishing an excerpt in the RSS feed puts me in the minority as far as bloggers go (albeit a fairly large minority). Them&#039;s the breaks.

As a rule, I try to make the first paragraph or two (which I use as the exercpt) be a tease to encourage people to read the rest. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn&#039;t.

Actually... I think I&#039;ll see if I can get MT to put a [more...] section in to the RSS feed, which will solve that problem. Thanks for the feedback, Tony. :)

		<description>Hi, just wanted to say that it wasn&#039;t clear to me from reading your post in Google Reader, that there was more to this than the first paragraph...
