  Look, I really loved the way you used to have Explore Topics. This allowed me to see how others see my blog and was a fast way for me to browse topics. It’s much too long to do this in my reader. I can’t scan quickly and I suspect that’s the same for others as well. In fact, my hits have gone down significantly for both my blogs since you’ve made this change. So that means I have fewer readers and less opportunities to gain new readers. I really hate this change. Please go back to the old way.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Darn it. The title s/b “I too, hate the change to Explore Topics in Reader.” (Not “go”)

  I second this motion. The old way was an excellent way to get readers; one could see more options on the page. This way new posts get buried quickly, and it takes forever to explore the posts of others.

  I too strongly dislike the way you are dumbing down WordPress. Where did the ability to post html go???

  I agree as well…Its also led to a drastic fall in traffic.
