One of the publicity tools of Feedburner.com is the headline animator that dynamically changes to show the title and opening words of my latest blog post. It’s a very cool feature since it is quite eye-catching and it continuously updates itself so every time I add a new post, it will be reflected almost immediately in my headline animator.   

I’ve been having problems using it as my email signature in my Yahoo account though. After 30+ attempts at attaching my headline animator as as my signature, I finally succeeded and I even posted the steps I used in the forums of Feedburner since the procedure they sent me wasn’t that useful. I discovered that one needed to edit the signature field in Internet Explorer so you can view the color and graphics bar. We use Mozilla Firefox in the office so I wasn’t able to fix it.

Fortunately, I didn’t encounter any problems when I used my headline animator as my signature for in the forums where I post. I’ve recently reactivated my account in USTExchange, the online community of my alma mater, the University of Santo Tomas. I’m hoping to generate more traffic by using my clickable new signature.
