Bloglines Borked?
Sigh.
Oh, Bloglines, why must you fail me so? When I logged in to check my feeds, this is what you give me?
That’s one, TWO panes listing my feeds. All those times I’ve asked for more features, that’s not what I was talking about. I meant features like “faster updating” so that I’m not a year behind the blogosphere, not presenting me the same late information twice. That just makes me even more bitter and causes me to fear I over did it with the drinks at lunch. [The what? --Susan] You know, all that water. Look away.
I thought perhaps I had just tapped into a weird glitch, so I tried logging out and then logging back in. No luck. I’m presented with a similar situation when I try to view Bloglines in IE. And yes, I hate you for making me even open IE. I’ve done nothing to you to deserve that.
Even though Susan hasn’t used Bloglines in forever because she finds it too slow and too unreliable, I asked her to open it up and log in to see if I was the only one experiencing a borked Bloglines. She found this:
Ah, no feeds. I had a similar problem back in September. [In other news, my Google Reader is working just fine.--Susan]
Confused, I went back to Bloglines. Logged out and in again and saw this:
ZOMG, my panes are multiplying like bunnies!
Bloglines, look away for a moment. I need to talk to your parents.
Ask? Yeah, hi. If you could do me a favor and make just one of your products competitive and not a total disappointment, I’d be over the moon happy. Thanks. In the meantime, I’m going to go break out Google Reader for the afternoon. You’re giving me a headache.
I thought last time you complained about bloglines you were leaving FOREVER? What gives?

Simon: Really? You wanna come over here and try your magic clicking powers on my machine? Cause I’m still watching my panes multiply.
