Feedburner is testing Blog Networks according to Techcrunch:

Feedburner is testing a new product called “Networks” which are groups of blogs on a single topic that are using Feedburner to manage their RSS feed. The idea is to allow people to subscribe to a single mashed up feed containing all of the content from all of the blogs in that category.

The RSS management company Feedburner has aquired the blog analytics company Blogbeat. The Feedburner blog explains the reasons for the purchase as:

Long story short, we have acquired Blogbeat. In our quest to provide our publishers with a comprehensive picture of how content is distributed and consumed, we liked the fact that Blogbeat uses the feed to gather additional information about the blog. We have been interested in expanding our combined site/feed view since FeedFlare got going some months ago, and Blogbeat will give us the ability to provide publishers with a more thorough statistics picture.

The acquisition means that Feedburner will be able to fully integrate Blogbeat analytics into their existing RSS analytics tools.

FeedBurner has also provided a FAQs page on the acquisition.
