Blogspot showing older content from one location but not from another

    As the subject: I'm seeing older posts from a Blogspot blog when I'm browsing at home, but up-to-date stuff when I'm browsing from work (two different ISPs). This Blogspot blog has switched to the new Beta though I can see other Beta blogs fine.

    I've cleared my browser cache and cookies. Bloglines is showing the new posts correctly but when I click on the link to go to the actual post, I get a "post not found" message from Blogspot.

    Anyone else has experienced this problem?

    It's not so much the fact that I can't read the blog properly that's annoying me. It's more the fact that I can't figure it out why! :D

    Ok the culprit was due to a stale DNS cache. Blogspot blogs which have moved over to the new beta have been assigned new IP addresses. Even though hitting the blog at the "old" IP address will still work, it is showing pages up till the day of the transition and no more.

    Moving along ... ;)
