It looks like for some short amount of time this morning, one of my favorite site’s RSS feed pointed to Fleshbot.
$ curl -I gizmodo.net/index.xml
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

Pretty impressive. It appears to be fixed now, but what’s going on at Gawker? Passwords stolen, unusable redesign, reading feeds on my iPhone doesn’t work, now getting RSS feeds confused?
It may be time to just switch full time to Engadget.

Yeah, I noticed this too (and they stay in my feed, thanks to google reader)
I’m just glad I didn’t check the feed whilst at work, considering the very nsfw nature of it!
