Bloglines weirdness - strange characters randomly

weirdness at bloglines - click for fullscreen

I’ve noticed bloglines will occasionally display all its messages in question marks. I’m pretty sure I never changed a language setting to Japanese or anything, so I’m a little bit confused as to how it happens. Seems to be on different pcs and different times, so probably not related to any sort of bad cookies…

(updates: sorry if anyone sees this multiple times in rss, tweaking the image css)

Rob, I experienced the same thing a couple of times last week. I ended up managing to get it back into english by visiting the Bloglines homepage and clicking the “English” link. I can only assume it’s a language setting on the server side getting confused as I know I can’t read Japanese! :)
