Regarding the feed, I suppose I could add a simple one to my site, like this one that I did for Saint-Gobain. I was thinking of doing a blog post on creating one in Umbraco.
What do you think the best address is for it? www.codeshare.co.uk/feed or www.codeshare.co.uk/rss.
Sorry, wasn't able to reply before now. I personally favour "feed" because it's more agnostic, more loosely coupled to the implementation. E.g., with feed, you can have an RSS feed now but change it to Atom later. Most feed readers don't care as long as you have a link tag in your head pointing to it.
Always worth remembering with feeds is that they can be used beyond the traditional feed reader. For instance Slack has feed integration. You can also use IFTTT or Zapier to do all sorts of stuff. They're kind of like a lightweight API to content.
Bundling and minification in Umbraco
Hi I wrote this post on my blog which goes into detail on how to set up bundling on your Umbraco 7 site.

I hope you guys find it useful.

Cool, thanks! Just been thinking of looking into this over the past few days.
BTW, no RSS feed?
You're welcome Charles.

I don't use them myself so I'm not sure.

I went with feed in the end.

And yes, a post on creating feeds would be great!
Thanks!
