Speaking of degraded UX. In my case My Yahoo! said 'no articles in the past
3 days' and didn't display any item at all. And this happened only because
items that were published in Feb preceded those published in July. I do not
understand this system at all. I don't see any reason for My Yahoo! to not
to display the feed http://www.bytegems.com/files/xxx.xml on the dashboard.
