The Bloglines blog periodically writes about "freedbacking," which is a way to tag your blog posts so that managers can find your thoughts about their product. Here then, is my freedback for the Bloglines folks:
Bloglines, I love you. I've used you for well over a year and sung your praises to anyone who would listen. You've allowed me to read news and blog content from more than 150 sites in one place instead of ... 150 places. You've let me evade some of the ravages of spam. You've helped me populate and manage my blogroll. You've made my life easier.
Until recently.
For months now, you have been flaky. You've become erratic about displaying jpeg images imbedded in feeds, including Flickr groups I administer. You've almost entirely stopped displaying the numerous HTML newsletters I'm subscribed to. Instead of expanding collapsed links, you are frequently popping open new, blank windows.
Not being able to view my favorite blog posts and Martha Stewart newsletters is annoying. Not being able to view my featured selections from QPB and seller notifications from Amazon is unacceptable.
Bloglines, won't you please go back to being the feed reader I fell in love with?
