As you may be aware, I use MSN Spaces as my vehicle for blogging – along with about 100 million other users a month. For the most part, I have no complaints, the system works as expected. Within the last few days, though, there’s been a major upgrade to MSN Spaces that seems to have introduced a couple of odd things.
First, the RSS feeds from blogs on MSN Spaces appear to have dried up, at least as far as my RSS Aggregator (RSS Bandit) is concerned. Even though I know that the blogs have new entries, they aren’t getting through to RSS Bandit.
Second, the list of trackbacks to my blog keeps jumping between giving the list and saying that there are no trackbacks.
Third, the comments list appears and disappears in the same way as the trackbacks list…
Presumably just teething troubles, but slightly irritating all the same, like a pebble in the shoe. I feel like the princess out of the Grimm’s tale of the princess and the pea…
