Scoble, before he looked into his problem:

Hey, Bloglines, I don’t really care who’s problem it is, but my feed works just fine on Google Reader and doesn’t work on Bloglines . So, the only conclusion I’m going to come to: Bloglines sucks. Please fix before everyone switches to Google Reader.

Scoble, after he heard from his blog vendor:

Matt Mullenweg admitted it was a bug in Wordpress and said that they are working on fixing it. Sorry for the stink, but I needed to force the issue because I was losing readers over on Bloglines.

"Force the issue"? Umm, when you use a vendor supplied product, what's the first thing you should do when you have a problem? Contact the vendor. Apparently, Scoble thinks the first thing you do is "jump up and down and blame a random party who may or may not be to blame".

That fits in fairly well with his Plaxo inspired scraping of Facebook - the mantra seems to be "It's not my fault, it's that guy over there".
