This plugin allows you to output your feedburner subscriber count anywhere on your blog. All you need to do is put the [feedburner] tag in a post. It also gives you the ability to add a (text) widget that allows you to add the feedburner tag as well.
This plugin integrates with Worpdress' built-in scheduling system to cache the subscriber count. This allows it to be displayed quickly and efficiently.
