Honestly, Abe. Your feed looks awful on netvibes, it’s unformatted, links are disabled, and I need to visit your page just to read your posts

Full feed is the best choice. Most news syndication sites prefer full feeds as well.

There’s really nothing we can do about spam sites using our posts, instead see it as a way of getting your message across. People will find the real source no matter what

And, its true, you get more readers than a summary feed.

Full feeds works best for my blog. I’ve had more readers and less instances of my posts being scraped.

Also, I believe that most rss readers prefer the full feeds over partial ones coz it’s more convenient. If the like the post, they’d visit the site and check out other comments or leave comments themselves.

By the way, your feed loses the formatting of your entries. Forces me to click on the permalink just to read (even worse than partial entries, IMO). I’m using Google Reader.

Full-view feeds give you a better chance of being read and commented upon when your reader has lots of other feeds to read.
