Are you saying that http://rohanpinto.com/twitter is your RSS feed? Looking at it, it isn't a feed, just plain text. It needs to be a feed in RSS or Atom format.

Interesting. This is a feed I'm combining on my side from a few sources, and did work fine before, so I'm wondering if one of my source feeds changed output. Anyway, I'll work on normalizing the date output.

Hi there, looking a the feed source, the problem is caused by having 2-digit year stamps. You can also check validation here: http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?ur...

The thing is that twitterfeed is actually a bit more forgiving than the above parser, and could live with 2-digit years, if the date format was consistent throughout - but it seems that at some point in the past you did have the 4-digit year in the feed, and now it compares "08" to "2008" and thinks that the posts with "2008" are newer...

So the easiest thing is probably to force 4-digit year everywhere, as that may also make the feed work better in other services.
