- Bloglines for the past 6 months hasn’t been updating feeds from thousands of blogs, and about 1/3 of every feed is having some problem. The problems have never been remedied despite countless requests.
- Founder, Mark Fletcher is upset with the situation which he has no control over; he sold the company to Ask.com in 2005, a few moths before they were acquired by Barry Diller’s InterActiveCorp
- Clearly Barry didn’t see a huge value for the service even though they have about a half a million people using the service every month. In his corner though, IAC stock has been having trouble since the company was broken up into multiple public companies in August. With the economic downturn and their fledgling web properties clearly put BlogLines at the bottom of the “To Do” list.
