2 hours 15 minutes. no RSS. Google v. RSS - Steve Gillmor

really? - Loic Le Meur

I guess Google's mantra of "Don't be evil" no longer holds true. Like you said, real-time web is under attack. - Steven (optionshiftk)

really - Steve Gillmor

appeared at 6:55 pm in Google reader. really, 3.5 hours is outrageous for it to appear in RSS feeds. Seemed like this happened once before, and they gave a pointer to another ping server that you could add to Wordpress ping options that sped it up. - Karoli

I mentioned somat about this on twitter to you steve... i think feedburner getting slow too. :o( - Rob Sellen :o)

wow, that is a LONG time... grrr - Susan Beebe

http://www.feedburner.com/fb... - Christian Burns

Why are you using feedburner? - Christian Burns

@karoli there is latency with feedburner, and then more latency on top of that with google reader. There is a WP plugin that would ping feedburner automaticly if TechcrunchIT wanted to take the time to set it up. - Christian Burns

@christianburns I'm at a loss to know why it takes a plugin to ping feedburner automatically. I thought that versions of Wordpress from about 2.5 up made that plugin obsolete. I removed it because it was slowing the ping process way down. - Karoli

bullshit, christian. feedburner should make this easy for anyone. Google is dropping the realtime ball. - Steve Gillmor

I observed a 90 minute delay yesterday. I still have a couple sites on FB, but have been considering dropping it for a while. - Chris Baskind

Google has shown no interest in real time. I want to see Google news real-time. - Steven (optionshiftk)

@stevegillmor I agree that google is dropping the ball, They are big enough to figure out a solution to realtime rss that just works for anyone. Carry on. - Christian Burns

I still use Feedburner, and there had been issues prior to the GOOG acquisition, but it's been particularly bad lately. Sad - Deepak Singh

I wonder if google is throttling down rss in favor of other realtime msgs - Christian Burns

I used to blame Google Reader for this, but it's all FeedBurner. Even if I ping right away, it's 50/50 in terms of seeing it quickly. - Louis Gray
