Otaku.fm Feed Share Request
Otaku.fm is an aggregator that not only pulls in your RSS feed, it also makes a thumbnail from the first post in your blog posts. Otaku.fm is due to undergo a long awaited renewal this year. You can expect elevated levels of traffic if your feed is approved for otaku.fm and even more so when shared widgets come out soon.
You need to have my feed registered on your site and showing items from my feed. Go to Gordonator and look on the right column to see an example - you should be able to see my latest posts.
Gordon's feeds appear on Otaku.fm like this - all with a nice thumbnail with each item linked back to his posts.
Your posts are supposed to show up on dannychoo.com randomly across the site but is a bit buggy - will be fixed soon.
To get your feed on Otaku.fm, all you have to do is what Gordon done and register my RSS feed on your site to show the news items. If that feed does not work then try the Feed Burner version.
The next step is to apply to have your feed activated. The screenshot below is what you will see when you go to the profile edit page. Check the "Request Featured Feed" box and hit "Update" on the profile page. You will now see "". The chobits will automatically visit your site listed under what you put in "Website" and if it detects a feed you will automatically be activated. You will then see "".
If you are an approved feed member, you will already see "" next to the "Request Featured Feed" check box.

-Please enable images in your feed and turn off anti-leeching code which will prevent us from getting your image for thumbnail generation.

Thought I'd include a pic of Nendoroid Rin for those who are not concerned with Otaku.fm.
Just like Hatsune Miku, her twintails support her so she can stand up without that base. Very cute.
