[...] While there are times that you are allowed to deliberately use misleading post titles to attract attention (a.k.a. pull in more eyeballs), more often than not, it is an intolerable practice – especially for bloggers that read hundreds of RSS feeds (or used to do so) and thus, especially depend on somewhat accurate post titles to gauge content.

The Bloglines blog admitted today it was duplicating posts with Atom feeds as it switches from an old to a new Atom parser:

This ties in with my experience of it not being simply Feedburner.

It is not about Bloglines but i launched a new website (it is almost 2 month olds) that can be an alternate to bloglines :D :D , just kidding :)

This was happening to me. I thought I was losing it. Good thing I’m still sane.

It seems to have started after the last WordPress upgrade. Mainly this blog and one other that seem to do it. At least for me.
Think of it this way-I’m twice as likely to read it. :)

It’s an issue on Feedburner itself:

Yes, in fact I just saw 6 old posts from Performancing show up as new.

I’ve also noticed that Feedburner’s BrowserFriendly and Convert Format Burner are not working. My original feed is displayed in the output.

I’m having the same problem, but not only that, in some of my feeds I found that the character encoding it’s all wrong.

It has happened to me other times, but only showing the old posts as new.

It is a problem with FeedBurner:

It appears that they broke something with UTF-8 encodings recently, and they are feeding invalid data to Bloglines and other aggregators.

I’ll be honest – I’ve switched to the built-in aggregator in Thunderbird and away from the “blog-only” readers. I’m not having the problem there at all (nor have I ever had any problems with it), so it must be something to do with Feedburner. T-Bird pulls in the RSS feeds straight from the site. Of course, the nice thing is that it is in the same client that I use for email all day long so it is convenient – plus very easy to forward a post by email (just click forward – it only forwards the link so the bloggers still get the traffic advantage. I like the fact that it saves posts even after they are modified or gone from the site (at least it seems to).

Sorry, wasn’t trying to plug Thunderbird – just wanted you to know the depth (or isolation) of your problem here. Hope that helps.

I’m pretty sure it’s encoding stuff screwing everything up on buglines. Brian nails it with all the ???’s coming causing the feeds to look “changed”

Feedburner sucks when it comes to republishing. For some reason feeds get republished as new all the time.

I did notice today that posts from Mena Trott on her blog were showing as new, although they were a couple of years old.

Yep, it’s crazy. And I just noticed that Bloglines is also screwing up the characters in posts — adding tons of ????s even though there’s nothing wrong with the source code on the blog.

I thought it was mainly TypePad blogs, but now I think about it, the real feeds with probs are the Feedburner feeds (in Bloglines)

I see the same thing. My feeds are acting weird, your feed is acting weird, as are many of the other ones I subscribe to. Feels like the harder I work, the behinder I get. Glad it’s not just me.

Yeah, I’m seeing similar things with my Bloglines account as well. I’ve seen it before but it seems worse than normal lately.

yep i’ve been having the exact same problem. Especially from the techcrunch feed 3 of the 6 stories were from yesterday.

Weird!

Didn’t you write this a week ago? ;-)

I’m seeing the same thing but have not noticed if they are all feedburner feeds. Also getting messed up characters.
