Hamlet, I'm not sure why but these Koinup posts always show up as a massive text garbage dump in my google reader. the embedded player comes across as "plt;pgt;amp;lt;pamp;gt;amp;amp;lt;pamp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;lt;pamp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;pamp;amp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;pamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;Koinup: Your amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href=amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;quot;http://www.koinup.com/amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;quot;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;Virtual Lifeamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/aamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/pamp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/pamp;amp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;amp;lt;/pamp;amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;lt;/pamp;amp;gt;amp;lt;/pamp;gt;lt;/pgt;/p "

not purty :(

Just FYI, I guess! And Happy New Year!

Sorry about that, Ms. Kuu, I noticed it too. Not sure what it is, will take it up with the Koinup kids. And HNY as well!

I too get that problem - I hadn't realised until now that it's a Koinup issue. It could be because the NWN posts are provided as snippets, however - perhaps the code is getting cut off before Reader can recognise it as content?

Anyway, happy new year from me, too! Who knows what stories'll turn up in that year?

[Hamlet Au]

And you too, my vital Vidal!

Seems like this "amp;amp;amp" dealie is a problem confined to mobile browsers, but I can see it in my Typepad HTML window too.

Thanx for posting this list, Hamlet!

And to Koinup, I've been enjoying their places discovery system. I don't get nearly as much time and focus as I'd like to visit AWESOMENESS in SL, and this brings it to me easier.

Some regions I haven't been to yet, so I'm saving this page for handy reference.

Thank-you to everyone who visited Here! =)
