Ha ha, Times Online published my comments on its bold new look to attract the MySpace Generation.
But now there’s a problem: I can no longer read The Times on Bloglines or my desktop news aggregator. What happened to the RSS feeds?
Scrolling to the bottom of the Times Online website did get me to a blue icon labelled Newsfeeds. Click on it and you find links to newsfeeds about Britain and the world and sports and technology. I clicked on the world news feed and up popped this dialogue box: "Internet Explorer can’t download. Unspecified error." Nor could I subscribe to the feed with Bloglines. I also tried the tech and web newsfeed with the same result.
What’s wrong? It’s hard to believe something’s gone wrong with the newsfeeds of a publication like The Times. But why else can’t they be read on an online news aggegator like Bloglines or, for that matter, on Internet Explorer Feeds?
