elizabeth grigg - the other fourth meal

The Internet (why we have to capitalize, still, as if it were a deity) completely horked on the day I was testing out the RSS feeds.

Here are the RSS feeds for this blog. They should have the same URL as the previous blog.

RSS2: http://egrigg9000.com/mtpub/index.xml

ATOM: http://egrigg9000.com/mtpub/atom.xml

One of many mysteries:

* I have stripped out the content of these files to only contain one entry, Yet, many entries appear in google reader. Many many entries. As if it had, you know, a "memory" of some kind. Miraculously, it still has the post from the other site, which was never migrated to this new location, and should have had just a temporary existence.

* Newsgator. One of the new fun things it did recently without me noticing is switching everyone to partial text feeds. So I had a coronary, thinking I was one of the great unwashed who had only partial text feeds, until I realized everyone had them.

* Anyway, Newsgator has a different interpretation of the content of the feeds. None of which is accurate. Also, it says each feed has only 1 subscriber (me) which either says

- I have the wrong feed URL

- While this blog was down, everyone unsubscribed

- While this blog was down, Newsgator dropped to 1/18th of the popularity it had. (Given that I had 18 readers and now have 1).

Anyway, it's worth another post, just to figure out what's happening. Obviously getting to pay attention to this whole mess is a bit of a holiday for me.
