I've changed the way photos are integrated a bit, and in doing so also made some modifications to the feeds. Rather than posting when a new gallery is added, there's a template in feeds. There are two options for seeing this. To integrate it into the same feed, add ?photos=true to the feed URL. This is also noted in the header of my site if you use a new enough browser. There is also a separate photos feed.
Inspired by JL! a while back, I finally got around to updating my RSS feeds. I split into two feeds, one for the main entries here, and the second for the comments. Both are also not just top x, but incorporate a time-based criteria as well. So if I stop updating (or people stop commenting), my feed won't become like some certain ones where old entries pop back up in the RSS readers since they're so old. Yea, that's working with bad client design (expire based on fetch date rather than last seen), but it seems to be a common bad client design.
Anyways, the feeds are in the source code of the main index. For those too lazy to look, they're Entries and Comments.
As I already had code to handle scheduled but action-based static files updates in place for sitemaps, I used it for this too. The feeds are also now static files, making readers that pay attention to last update times at the HTTP level more efficient. This also means that there may be a few minutes delay before entries or comments appear in the feeds. If you're pulling them at any sane interval (>= 15 minutes), you won't notice. You may have also already noticed the other new addition. If you haven't you apparently don't use RSS.
