Ross Miller responded to my email about it. I just posted it this morning: http://solyoung.com/2008/07...

We're stuck using the refresh button.

until a minute ago when i used the refresh button my del.icio.us hasn't been updated for a few days (while last.fm has). actually, since i joined friendfeed a couple of days ago delicious never refreshed automatically (and one time it even didn't manually - i removed and added my del.icio.us account to friendfeed, to get my latest bookmarks).

that's really annoying.

That's odd. Seems they are having trouble with spidering. Seems a refresh should be forced when a user views his or her own page... Would be a good logic inclusion.

Do you ever notice a feed never update? That's the case with my del.icio.us and last.fm services. A refresh does the trick.

I use the same trick to refresh my feeds, if I notice that there is a significant delay then I force the update. They need to introduce a refresh all feature although it isn't really that disrupting. The best feed to update is Google Talk, as soon as you update status it's already on FriendFeed!

Sometimes things update quickly, sometimes they don't. I have two FriendFeed accounts, and made Blogger blog updates to two different blogs (one for each FriendFeed account). One updated instantaneously, the other took four hours to show up on my FriendFeed. I wasn't aware of the "edit/add - save" forced refresh trick until Louis Gray told me about it.
