I've noticed this on a few feeds as well. I plan to address some Rososo things in the near future and this will be one of them on my list.

Thanks for using rososo.

This is a fantastic idea and is on the wish list. I plan to do around of rososo fixes in the very near future and hope to address this one.

thanks for using rososo

Hi

This behavior is a new feature however the links should be going to the "stale" section. Is this not the case?

Billy replied on January 18, 2009 00:06 to the question "What are some reasons/workarounds for non-working feeds?" in Rososo:

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this. I have just made a major change to the crawler which should hopefully fix many problems related to feed updates.

Let me know if your bookmarks are not updating still and I will see what I can do to fix them.

Thanks for using Rososo,
Billy

Billy replied on January 08, 2009 14:27 to the question "Is there a way to manage my folders?" in Rososo:

Hi Jamie,

If you want to create a new one you can select the "+ add new folder" option. To remove a folder you have to move all the links from that folder to another one.

Billy replied to "What are some reasons/workarounds for non-working feeds?", but it was removed. see the change log

Billy replied on December 06, 2008 18:23 to the question "Is there a way to manage my folders?" in Rososo:

Hi Jamie,

You can move bookmarks between folders by clicking the "edit" button under the link.

See the image below.

Rososo is having some issues with the feed updater which we are working out right now.

I apologize for the downtime, but I assure you it will be back up in the next day or so.

Billy replied on November 13, 2008 18:33 to the question "Rososo suddenly not tracking fresh content" in Rososo:

A fix has been applied and appears to be working. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Billy replied on November 13, 2008 15:57 to the idea "Rososo Bookmarklet" in Rososo:

Hi,

This feature is built and in testing. It will hopefully roll out this week.

Billy replied on November 13, 2008 15:53 to the question "Rososo suddenly not tracking fresh content" in Rososo:

Rososo appears to have sustained some server damage that has caused the feed crawl to malfunction.

We have a temporary fix in place such that your feeds should update fairly constantly until we repair the main problem.

Thanks for the report

Billy replied on October 20, 2008 14:44 to the question "Rososo won't display some of my feeds." in Rososo:

One of the main reasons a feed stops working is because a site owner will change the feed - usually substituting their home grown RSS for feedburner or the like. One thing I would like to do would be to have a 'report feed' link that causes us to parse for the feed url. In the mean time, post them here and ill see if I can manually fix the issues.

Billy replied on October 20, 2008 14:43 to the idea "Allow import of links from Google Reader or other OPML source" in Rososo:

Hi Jon,

The import / export feature is now live. Import away!

Billy replied on October 20, 2008 14:37 to the question "stale feeds - bad rss" in Rososo:

Hi

Our parsing algorithm handles most variations of dates though putDate on items is preferred.

Billy replied on October 17, 2008 13:09 to the question "stale feeds - bad rss" in Rososo:

Hi,

Though the fefe.de feed validates, it does not contain any information about when posts were created. The post publish date is what rososo uses to determine if your feeds are 'fresh'.

stickos.org is in a non standard atom format. I will have to look at it and figure out how to change our parsing to handle it.

Thanks for the report
Billy

Billy replied on October 16, 2008 13:58 to the idea "Allow import of links from Google Reader or other OPML source" in Rososo:

Both wishes will be granted. We are testing a round of changes that will hopefully be rolled out this week that include both import and export functionality.

Billy replied on October 16, 2008 13:50 to the problem "Rososo not accepting bookmarks" in Rososo:

Hi,

This should be fixed. See this post for an explanation.

Billy replied on October 16, 2008 13:48 to the problem "Opera problems" in Rososo:

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this - it was indeed a bug. We have been building some new features and some incomplete code accidentally made it to the server. The offending part has been removed and the site should now function as usual.

Billy replied on October 06, 2008 20:14 to the question "Is there a limit to the number of bookmarks you can have?" in Rososo:

Hi,

Right now there is a 100 bookmark limit.
