Why is it that I receive each RSS news item from share Skype at least 3 times? It's happening consistently and is extremely annoying.

Adam, which RSS reader are you using? The ones we've tested with all seem to work OK.

NetNewsWire on OS X. This is the third time this post has appeared in the feed, and it appears no modifications were made (which can make it reappear). Is it possible that comments are triggering a republish?

Hi,

Why not Paris or Biarritz ? In France, ours cities are very beautyful and the sun always here!

Please fix your RSS generator. I use Bloglines to read my feeds, and your posts appear over and over; this one in particular has been appearing several times per day since it was published (another one was the one about the icons exhibition). This is the sort of stuff that makes people want to unsubscribe, so please fix it ASAP!!!

I suspect the problem is related to comments. A post should *not* reappear in a feed every time a new comment is posted.

please organise this in the Netherlands too...

I´m wondering why this kind of research can´t be done through skype. Why just people close to London can get involved? After all, isn´t skype trying to make people communicate wherever they may be?

Re: Rss Problems.

I designed the rss generation for share.skype.com - If an article is edited and the text is modified or the title changed (To correct spelling for example) rss readers will reshow that article as a new article. This is normal, even the BBC News Rss feed does this!

Re: Rss problems (2)

The generation of the rss feed has *nothing* to do with comments, and the feed is *not* generated everytime a new comment is created.

Hi Phil,

There is definitely something wrong with the generator, unless someone is purposely editing the post to make it continuously reappear in people's feeds. I have received this particular post in my feed multiple times per day, every single day since it was originally posted.

Have you actually created a bloglines account and tested for yourself? That is what I as the developer would've done by now. Note that I am not the only person to take the time to report it. I don't mean any disrespect to you, but by telling me that you developed it etc. you are implying that I am wrong, that I am making this stuff up, which is disrespectful to me.

It's still appearing for me constantly in NetNewsWire as well.

I found where the problem is.
It's because of the email protection in the source code. In order to protect research(at)skype(dot)net they used some random javascript variables. It means that each time the page is reloaded (and also the feed) the content is different.
20 minutes ago the variable was "addy76741" and now it's "addy6906".
Since the content is different, our RSS readers just show us a new post.
Hope this helps...

Please, pretty please with sugar on top: could you get rid of the javascript in this post. It's annoying to _always_ see this post as updated in bloglines. Just write research[at]skype.net instead or something that doesn't involve random variables in the script...

Guys, if you don't read comments just turn them off... It's really boring to give you some tips and not to be listened at. Since 7 days I received this post at least 30 or 50 times. I think I'll do like the others and unsubscribe from your blog since I cannot turn off the “show modified as New” option in my reader like Mollyfud adviced it.

Just for interest sakes, still Getting the post (even with Don't show modified as new). Is there anything you can do at your end to fix this? I might have to unsubscibe and I don't really want to do that.

TIA
Molly

guys - thanks for your observations. It appears that indeed the e-mail cloaking feature is causing the annoyance. We have disabled it for the time being and you should no longer get the post reappearing.

I'm looking to see if it would be possible in a near futur to redirect my call_in to my mobile phone. That would be great for my company since we are most of the time on the move.

Hi there, I am not interested in participating actively in the research group BUT I do have an idea: can you please post the statistics for hourly usage over a day. Perhaps you can average it over a week, or whatever, but I would love to know what times of the day I can expect traffic to be 'light' and when I can expect it to be 'heavy'. Perhaps you can call it 'Skype Traffic Report'. It would help me manage my time in terms of when to call people...sometimes the line is beautiful and clear, other times its simply jammed. I am sure there would be times when this wouldn't help, but there must be an 'offpeak' time!! ThanQ!! P.S. Truly is a great little thang, this Skype!

i've just signed up and i must say i'm pretty impressed.hopefully this is not one of those products thats good in the beginning and then starts becoming crap.i've yet got no complaints or suggestions.let me know more about your research.i stay in london and can help

count me in.

I m willing to participate in this research. i m in london as well so can easily participate

Yes I want to participate of research groups. rr534rrmb. My e mail is rrmb534@ig.com.br

Been a happy user for last 8 months or so but recently find calls suddenly being disconnected rquiring redialing & same thing happening after a few minutes. Also converation delay is getting worse making for vey disjointed conversations. Your USB phone fixed echo problems & yes as an Australian subscriber would like to participate in your new research group.

Hi, I'd like to participate in the research. My e-mail: liebeistliebeist@hotmail.com
Thanks!

I will be great if you perform a Skype for Palm LifeDrive

My comment is on Databases.

I have started to use Skype and find it to be better than a telephone but it needs some tuning up.

Databases.
Businesses are run on them, they are the key to work and "life as we know it Jim".

Your current database is good place to start from but most professional companies develop say "Access" to give them what they want. Internet Explorer has the old CSV which can be managed through Access. It means that I can sort the persons name or e-mail address alphbetically.

I welcome your comments.

Have you got forum so that we tell you what we think?

What is the address?

Yes I want to participate! Contact: canodo@skype-club.de

Skype makes the voip world go round and it hold the peace!
It`s really important that skype dont know: skin colors , religions, or other doubtful "differences"..!

I have to smile when i read something about s-killers

SKYPE `rocks through the world wild web and millions of skypers appreciate it!
Peace & good skype 4all..! C.

I´d like to participate in this research group.
I live in Chile, and here Skype is becoming a success...

Thanks for sign me up in this group.

i think it would be a great idea to be able to buy skypeout gift voucher (using codes) for christmas or birthday presents etc.

could we have category/group like personal, business so that it is easier to find the correct number or even better where we can create group.

the other idea i have is to be able to import name and telephone number form Access or CSV file instead of just outlook.

also love to have the feature of export the list to either csv or access so we can make changes like name all at once instead of one by one.

Having problems with making credit card payment. Skype will
not display page with credit card field, enabling me to enter CC details. Where am I going wrong???????

I started to use skype today, and on my first usage i have notice that the sound quality is not very good. Sometimes the conversation its interrupted, its a detail on a project that is so big (connect everyone)!

I will continue exploring skype until a better software apears...I'm joking

Skype is so good, we use it for sending reports back to base from a laptop in any wifi area. It beats isdn in both quality and simplicity.
We have now built a reporter kit that works - without trouble.
