I’m running a load of tests comparing ‘direct’ subscription vs yahoo pipes vs other aggregators to try and get a fix on what’s going on. It seems that the pub date in RSS items is misleading, so an item that is classed as published ‘today’ could in fact have been issued several days or even weeks ago. If I cannot nail that one then the whole project is dead in the water, unfortunately.

At one point, there was a Microsoft beta that did similar things to feeds, but it was even harder to figure out initially — and now I can’t seem to find it at all.
