feedburner出错:Google's poor planning on Feedburner

今天收到下面这封信,由于google在合并feedburner用户时,计划失误,出现同名的情况,而我属于倒霉的那个,订阅地址被修改了。难道就没有其他更好的解决办法吗?使用不同的域名不可以吗?

不知道google的改名程序用什么策略。和我同名的是EuroScience.Net,比我的园子老,2005年就成立了,可能订阅数也多,但是去年12月后就没有更新了。

信的最后说,作为补偿,Google会送一份礼物。希望他们不要糊弄我受伤的心,呼呼。

那个用于填写地址的spreadsheet倒很有意思,可以用来做调查,什么时候试试——好嘛,刚被修理了,不知回头,反而越陷越深。

自动给出的名字太不堪,改为下面这个。希望已经订阅的朋友能看到此帖,烦请修改地址:
http://feeds2.feedburner.com/esnblg

如果原先订阅的是如下地址,可以继续使用,不过建议还是修改为上面的,这样以后万一园子搬家,你不必做任何修改就能继续接收订阅。当然前提是google不再出昏招。

Hello,

First of all, thank you for using FeedBurner and AdSense for feeds. We really appreciate every minute you spend using our services.

We also know you've come to depend on us to deliver your feed reliably without ever requiring you to change anything (unless you want to). Unfortunately, due some poor planning on Google's part since you created your new feed, http://feeds2.feedburner.com/esn, we have been forced to change its address to http://feeds2.feedburner.com/esn2.

WHY DID THIS HAPPEN?
We have worked hard to ensure that any feed that already exists on feeds.feedburner.com cannot be created in the new Google-hosted feeds environment, feeds2.feedburner.com. However, a few feeds, including your own, did end up with the same address on both sides. We've used an automatic conflict-resolution system to determine which feed's address to change, and the choice ended up being this feed.

WHAT NEXT?
This change in feed address means you may need to make a few other changes in order to make sure your subscribers can still subscribe to your content.

1. If you:
- use the WordPress FeedSmith plugin with a WordPress self-hosted blog;
- OR have a "Post Feed Redirect URL" setting in a Blogger account;
- OR have applied any redirects with an Apache web server you use to host your site;

...you will need to change the redirection address to http://feeds2.feedburner.com/esn2.

2. If you use FeedBurner's feed to email service, you will need to regenerate your email subscription form in the Email Subscriptions section of the Publicize tab at http://feedburner.google.com and re-insert it on your website.

3. If you use FeedBurner's subscription chicklets, or use FeedBurner's FeedCount icon, you will also need to get new code for those images on the Publicize tab at http://feedburner.google.com and re-insert it on your website.

4. Any other links to your feed, posted on your website, will need to be changed to http://feeds2.feedburner.com/esn2


If these steps are not completed, it is likely your subscribers will see the wrong content.

SINCE THIS IS TOTALLY OUR MISTAKE...
Along with our profuse apologies for allowing this to even happen in the first place, we would like to send you some free stuff. Please fill out the following form and provide your postal mail address:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=cDdzVUM...0Yk1DUEE6MA

We'll get a package off to you shortly!

Warm regards,

The FeedBurner and AdSense for feeds teams
