One other thing. I was really impressed with Rumplo tonight. Last night I wanted to integrate the “Favorites” RSS feed into my lifestream, since I use their service to bookmark t-shirts I want to buy pretty often. Unfortunately, the RSS feed was missing a key piece of data: the date that the shirt was favorited.

I sent a quick note mentioning this via their “Contact us” page, as I’ve done many times on many other sites. I expected the same response to those types of emails that I always get, which is absolutely nothing. However, when I got home tonight, I found the following email in my inbox:

Howdy!

Just wanted to let you know that we *just* pushed a big new release to Rumplo (http://rumplo.com) that included a fix that you had asked for (favorites RSS feeds were missing the pubDate fields). I’m super glad that I was able to squeeze it into the schedule earlier today (a quick fix), but I’ll be taking a peak at our other RSS feeds to see if they’re missing anything critical too.

Feel free to email me if you see other problems on the site, or general feature requests!

Thanks for your help!

That’s pretty awesome, and it has indeed been fixed.

This has shaken my firm belief that one person in fact cannot make a difference. Next thing you know, I’ll be registering to vote.

Just kidding.
