Deleted posts are showing up on Socialthing and Friendfeed.

I wrote a question as a post and then decided to delete it. Then I decided to ask the same question, but this time make it a link. Then later decided to delete that too. So later when I check my socialthing page, I see both deleted posts. Sent them a bug thinking it was cached on their end. But now today I am seeing one of the deleted posts on Friendfeed.

Now I have deleted posts before on Pownce and they haven't showed up before. I probably should try this a couple more times to verify the bug, but I just don't want to have more ghost posts show up.

Bug to Socialthing:

I’m confused

Hi Sean,

If you're looping your Pownce through other networks via a feed, it will work just like a regular feed and pick up the original posts that are published (similar to if you blog something and later delete the post), so this may happen from time to time if the post isn't deleted before the feed picks it up.
