Default Genesis eNews and Update Widget
I have switched to FeedBlitz because I like the functionality of it over FeedBurner but right now, the Genesis eNews and Update Widget can only be used with FeebBurnrer. Is there a way that it can be modified to use with FeedBlitz?

Thank you.

Wow...this is too bad. I am using the FeedBlitz widget but like the Genesis one. Perhaps the Geneis one will be changed as I hear that Google will be doing away with it soon. They already don't support it. It's only a matter of time.

Google is dropping the feedburner API.

That is not the same as dropping feedburner.

And yes - I have read the same blog posts. ;) In fact, I read one today that said the feedburner feeds will continue to work.

That may be true...but like Seth Godin, I like FeedBlitz's ability to totally customize my posts being sent out via RSS and e-mail. FeedBurner is very lame in my humble opinion. I just sent FeedBlitz an e-mail. I will also send one to the Genesis eNews and Update developer to see what their plans are.

That widget is a core Genesis widget.

We'll handle it at some point - but not until there is something firm from Google themselves.
