I'm not interested in the rest of whatever you might be putting online. There are enough blogs/twitters/etc/etc whose originators somehow think people are interested in the stuff of their personal lives. Keep The Raw Feed the way it is.

If we want the firehose we can go to the 'other' blog of you yours - I come here for the tech, and occasional opinion item. But meh, it's your blog ;)
I read TRF for interesting tech content and, after checking out your Posterous feed, I don't think that I would read as often (or at all) if TRF were changed to a more inclusive format. By and large, I'm not interested in reading status updates and would become easily frustrated by wading through everything else to get at the content I came to find.
I have complained to you before about all the political china bashing you do. Your response was basically "Its my blog, I'll post what I want".
Well since you are asking... I value your views on technology, and interesting links on technical topics... you can keep your politics.

One thing I like a lot about the Raw feed is that it doesn't post too much content. I can't keep up with sites like Engadget or Gizmodo which post 250-300+ items a week. Keep The Raw Feed as is. If I want more items I'll subscribe to your Posterous feed.

I don't Twitter/tweet/whatever. I don't do Facebook. I have enough time to read a few sites and RSS feeds, and The Raw Feed is one that I always check out. I may try Posterous, since I just learned of it from this post, but don't change TRF.

I get the Raw Feed in google reader 'cause the tech stuff interests me. If the feed suddenly fills with other stuff I'm not interested in I'd probably unsubscribe.
Raw Feed has been around a long time. I've followed your columns and subscribed to email and feeds. I look for your insight, not links and gadgets.

I'm happy with the current format, but have a suggestion: can you move the line "Please add updates@feedmyinbox.com to your address book..." because only that shows up in my inbox. Would be better to see the first subject...

TRF is a superb invention of yours, thank you! It is distinct in content compared to the lifestream, which could at times includes any quirky items that cannot be easily categorised, or may not be up to TRF quality.
Cheers,

yeah, leave it as is. if it's not broken, why fix it?
as you say, you're getting 230K people a month looking at what going on here, and it can only grow. plus i think the unique stream of posts is what i keep coming back for.
keep it up!
thanks,

Great content as-is. It's quick and interesting. I value it as a resource for unique opinions, links and new information. It's the mind-candy in the middle of my news junkie homepage.

If i am looking for a tech fix i go to TRF!
I get both, I like them both. However, TRF is easy to read and i know what to expect. Keep them separate!
Less is more.
