Re: [Blosxom-users] Google Reader doesn't recognise default RSS feed

[Gavin C. <ga...@op...>]

Hi Gustaf,

Your feed looks fine, although it's pretty huge - 2.5MB, and takes 23s
to download on my connection in the UK. If you want to keep it that
large you should certainly look at turning on gzip compression in your
webserver.

Your problem is that you're missing a link in your header flavour pointing
to the feed. Something like:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://gustaf.symbiandiaries.com/twitterblog/index.rss" title="Feed for Gustaf's Twitter blog">

That's why it's not being autodetected by Google (and probably your
browser).

Cheers,
Gavin
