Recently, my habit has be to first validate the feed before looking at the content. As often happens, I might be a mesage that reads "Sorry. This fee does not validate" and then a list of problems that I am too dumb to comprehend. I've been change the status to "Awaiting Repair" and then adding a note about the feed validation error. However, sometimes it appears to be a perfectly valid feed.
Feed number 286973 is a good example. I can tell from the template and my own experience that is is a Blogger.com blog but hosted remotely on the owner's personal domain. Blogger.com using Atom fees. This feed "does not validate" yet it is a perfectly good blog and it caused me to question the results of the feed validator. I went ahead and approved the feed. Then I went back to my own feed: 360969. My feed used to validate and now it doesn't. Does feed validator.org not like Atom fees for blogger .com? Is the feed validator even worth using? These are feeds the syndic8 has no problem polling and showing the recent headlines. Are these legitimate issues or is it just case me being a newbie to this whole feed/syndication thing? ------------------------ Yahoo!
