Bloglines Goes Bad
If you are a subscriber of Bloglines, you may have noticed the frequency of red exclamation marks and error messages. This is what is known as a broken system.

In an Internet that has so many choices, we are allowed to say, “We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore.”

Dear fellow GearLive readers:
Last week, some of Bloglines’ users may have experienced issues with specific blog feeds not being updated in a proper or timely way—and for that, we apologize. We’ve located and fixed the glitch, and everyone’s blog feeds should be back to normal and updated. We’re communicating this today to our users via our homepage, and Eric Engleman gives a personal explanation today on our Bloglines Blog: http://www.bloglines.com/about/news.
- Nicholas Graham, on behalf of Bloglines and the Bloglines crew
