Scoble says we should pick either RSS || Atom and publish one and only one in lieu of waiting for a standards organization decision on the matter. I think this is the coward's way out.

It isn't hard to support both. Take a quick look to the right...I am not sure the extra links are "clutter", and they certiainly don't take a lot of space.

It's hard, oh so hard (so hard in fact that I'm about to do it) to keep from drawing the comparison to the days when IE was so far off the reservation on HTML and DOM standards that cross-browser code was a real pain to write. But the good web developers did it. Why? Because it's the right thing to do. The lazy ones wrote code just for one browser (usually IE) and provided links to download their browser of choice. Is there anyone out there who still thinks this is good practice?

If you are writing a blog, you want people to come to you. You are not in a position to dictate how they read your blog unless you want to limit your readership. As long as there are aggregators that support Atom && RSS, support both. Don't limit choices.
