Around SBN: UFC 146 Results: Junior dos Santos TKO's Frank Mir

Any tech-savvy readers available to help with a Mug production issue?

Hey folks,

I kept this off the front page because most of you won't care, but a handful of you might be interested in helping me with an issue I've stumbled across and either know or be capable of figuring out a solution.

I use Google Reader to produce the Mug each morning, because it's the easiest way I've found to peruse new content from hundreds of sites daily. In 99% of situations it works great, and I'm able to use it nicely with some of SBN's proprietary tools. Twitter, however, has become an exception.

I have several Twitter feeds in my reading list, but for whatever reason Twitter seems to have gone out of its way to prevent users from getting RSS feeds for individual accounts. My old feeds still work, but if I try to add a new one (like new MLB.com Pirates beat reporter Tom Singer, for example), I can't. I frequently use tweets as a source for the Mug, but not being able to get them in Google Reader makes it increasingly difficult for me to efficiently find them.

Anyone know how I might be able to fix this?

I've found an article, and the maybe the second segment is what you're talking about?

Here’s what I found. The Troubleshooting section explains a problem this guy had with some feeds where it is impossible to view certain usernames. Hope this helps, Kyle!

FanGraphs should consider a venue for a Gallery Night... they could even serve a cake with a Win Expectancy Chart of the 7/7/11 Brewers' game etched in the frosting, and 7-up. Oh, yeah - and t-shirts that say "SABR-Friday." I'm totally there.

That's nifty!

Did you get that from firefox?

p.s. the first part seems to focus on the sidebar widget, and I know that's not what you were asking.
