I was thinking it'd be interesting to revisit this in 12 months and see how RSS usage did develop - so I went looking for some figures, but on first sight I struggled to find any decent stats on RSS use now. I know some services (eg Feedburner) publicise how many feeds they publish, but I was looking for something that was about end users - eg active RSS recipients. Any ideas?! Thanks for the commment Stephen.

I remember last year people were saying exactly the same. Although the new IE7 does have RSS support it's still going to be a while before a) regular people use IE7 or Vista and b) they finally figure out why the hell that little orange icon appears when they land on certain 'websites'. I'm just not feeling the uptake of RSS and probably won't until it's integrated seamlessly (i.e. without having to think about it) into certain leisure technologies(for example, the TV) as a method of delivering quality content. No disrespect to the RRW, it's a great blog, but I don't think widgets "exploded" in 2006 either. I really don't see that many and believe me I've visited thousands and thousands of blogs in the last few months. 2 pence :-) I’m a little hesitant to claim 2007 as the year of RSS.
