After posting some test blog entries, I then remove them from my blog. however, once loaded by google reader, they never disappear from it. Even if I sign up to my blog feed from a different account, they still appear, so it seems that they are centrally cached by google reader. How can I force google reader to delete them from cache?

You can't, you just can't. I've had the same problem and I'm sorry that you have to deal with this just like everyone else. The Problem: your RSS feed only holds a finite number of entries and when you make a new post, the oldest post on your feeds "drops off". Google reader doesn't really know whether you deleted your post or not, so it assumes you didn't. Potential Solutions Take the post with the GID of the one you want to get rid of and override the text with (1) a new post or (2) no text at all. A good rule of thumb is that everything you put on the internet will always be on the internet whether you want it to be or not. | |||

If you want to try and replace the older GUIDs, the script at this page may be of help: http://martinharrigan.blogspot.com/2010/03/unblogging.html | |||
