Do i really have 240 subscribers?

So according to my feedreader counter i have 240 RSS subscribers. I found that funny because i haven't been promoting the blog at all recently so i am wondering if those 240 subscribers are actual living human beings. In order to find that out i am placing a poll in which all you have to do is vote "yes" hopefully with this i can know more accurately the number of people that read my stuff.
Why does it matter? well truthfully it doesn't its just that i want to know that's all, so vote now!

Just thought I'd say hey and let you know that, at least for me, I came across your blog compliments of google reader's suggestions. You probably really do have that many readers! Congratulations!

Same here, Google Reader suggestions lead me to your blog.

Keep up the great work.

Last time I checked, I was a human too. :p Like all the other who has posted comments, I got this site recommended by Google Reader. You got a very nice blog, so keep up the excellent work. :)

It was a GOOGLE READER suggestion!

I'm seeing a trend here...

I think your 240 subscribers are mostly made up of readers from sites with RSS feeds on software reviews using Google Reader, like Likehacker.

Your style of writing reviews is excellent, good wording and images. This gives me enough details to make a decision to try out the reviewed products.

I've never really been human, but I did post of my own free will and yes I found you via Google Reader Suggestions.

Human.

I think I found this site a couple months ago via a link from another freeware site.

Good site. Keep it up!

Thank you all for leaving a comment, i appreciate it a lot.

So google reader huh? that's interesting since google must have my blog in its index and found it relevant enough to suggest it to people.

Anyway i am gonna try to keep up the work and post some more freeware stuff. I'll leave the poll open for 2 weeks if anyone wants to vote on it.

Thanks again!

I'm not a feedburner reader but I check the site everyday via my Firefox bookmark.

I enjoy reading the articles posted, many clue me into time saving or sanity saving utilities.

I just found you in Google Reader and I'm a freeware junkie so I subscribed right away :-)

I'm human# 71!

Actually, I just found out about you today, it was a Google recommended link within the Google Reader. (who actually clicks on those recommended links?) But I liked what I saw and added your feed to my reader.

BTW, do you have plans of splitting this up to branches for Windows, Mac, and *nix?

Keep it up!

Thanks to the new commenters for their comments.

I dunno if you mean having 3 separate blogs for those 3 operating systems but if you do let me say that is not going to happen.
Is impractical to have 3 different blogs for different operating systems, i'd rather keep it all in one place.
