Google acquired feedburner somewhere in 2007 and since then has been running the service almost unchanged. But, that is going to change soon.
The feedburner service (which is also used to manage the feed of this blog) is going to go away sometime over the course of next week and Google is migrating all users from Feedburner to Google.
You also have a choice to complete the migration yourself.
Login to your feedburner account and on the top of the page, you should see a message written in a yellow (!!) background, saying, “We are moving Feedburner accounts to Google. Move your account now.” Or some such thing.
Click on the “Move your account now” Link and you will be taken through a mostly automated wizard which will let you move your feeds over to your Google account.
The final process during which the actual migration takes place can take some time if you have a lot of subscribers, but the good thing is that you can close the browser window and do something else. You’ll get an email from Google when the migration is complete.
If you see anything unusual with respect to the number of subscribers being reported and if you think the number is not correct, don’t panic, Google says that your google account will start reflecting the correct number in about a week.

I opened a feedburner account recently with my google id. So was not required to migrate. However I am facing big problem synching my good adsense acount with google feedburner account.
I went to adsense setup –> AdSense for Feeds –> In the bottom I see:
You have no feeds in your account yet.
Add feeds to your account:
Burn new feed
Move FeedBurner feeds to your Google Account
When I click on ‘Move FeedBurner feeds to your Google Account’ link, it opens the feedburner login page for me but my google id and password don’t work here. But I swear when I open the feedburner login page independently, I can get into it with google id and password.
This is the URL when you go to feedburner via adsense: https://feedburner.google.com/migration/start.action?hl=en
This is the independent URL to login to feedburner:
https://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/home
What is goiing on here?
So, you’re not seeing ads in your feeds ?
I’m not sure how to rectify that though. Maybe its just a hiccup which will go away as google smoothens this process.
