Tags: insanity, release, software, stuff, things

So, I upgraded to Firefox 0.10 (1.0 Preview Release for those of you silly enough to believe such things). So being insane, I tried out the new Live Bookmarks feature, it worked fine with my Atom Feed and seemed to work fine with my LiveJournal Atom Feed, but when I tried using it with some of my Top Secret Zoe feeds, all it did for me was say "Live Bookmark feed failed to load." This, of course, was obviously wrong behavior since I am quite certain that Zoe outputs correct Atom 0.3 and RSS 2.0. After wondering about why this would happen, I thought, "Oh, yeah, Zoe's feeds don't have <title/>'s!" Upon further inspection of its behavior with LiveJournal feeds, I discovered that it was just not displaying untitled entries, which is horrible since both standards allow for untitled items, and RSS explicitly does.

Get Firefox?

While researching this problem on Google, I discovered that they took out the alternate stylesheet switcher thingy, although, after inspection, I discovered that it still exists for viewing XML (moved from bottom left to bottom right).

I'm also bothered by the fact that there isn't a Firesomething that works with it yet, but that's just me being impatient.

Get Firefox!
