Dear Bloglines,
I have three feeds for my blog, and you have stopped updating one of them. The one with 170 people trusting it to work. I have tried to ping my blog repeatedly. I have tried to ping the feed that is not updating. I even tried pinging my site without mentioning my blog.
Nothing.
Zippo.
Nadda.
Zilch.
I used the contact us thingy on your site last week to ask for help.
Nothing.
Are you waiting for me to offer y'all handknit socks?
Do you want me to come over there and make a scene?
Do you enjoy knowing that Opal was worried about me and had to hunt my cranky ass down to see if I was alive or dead?
Is this how you show your love for a devoted beta user?
No love,
A Cranky Knitter
It's typepad's fault, I truly believe.

I'm inclined to agree with Carrie. It seems awfully coincidental with the upgrade and other problems you've been having. Sorry I haven't been over here. A whole LOT has been happening in my life! By Thursday, maybe I can write you a proper email or sumpin'.

The same thing happened to me last week and I also got no response (other than the automated one telling me I'd get a response in 24-48 hours)from them.

Bloglines gets the L for Losers award. Lucky for me (well, luckier for you) I'm not subscribed to the defective feed, so I have not fallen under the impression that you have gone AWOL. Maybe you could knit them a customer service ethic?

I'm glad I don't have to be worried. Your ears should have been ringing 'cause I was thinking about you even though I'm feeling pretty self-absorbed right now. Come *on*, bloglines, no body wants to worry.

Hey, I think there is something up with FEEDBURNER, and not bloglines. If I click on your subscribe button on the lower right --> it gives me all sorts of error crap. Like this:
FeedBurner could not deliver this feed to you because of the specific problem listed below:
Feed Address: http://feeds.feedburner.com/typepad/JhbV
HTTP Error (Code) and Message: (404) Feed not found error: FeedBurner cannot locate this feed URI.
