Google Feedburner – Broken Integration?

I’ve had a feedburner account for a long time. I’ve also had an adsense account since shortly after Google launched it.

When Google finally announced that RSS ads were going to be available to Feedburner users I was quite excited. If nothing else I wanted to try it out. If it didn’t work out as well as I’d have liked I could easily drop the ads.

Unfortunately things weren’t quite that simple.

My Adsense account is a Google Account, whereas my existing Feedburner account isn’t, so I basically had to transfer or merge stuff together to get it working.

Now I may have made a mistake when I added a completely new feed into Adsense… I’m not 100% sure.

In any case I’ve now ended up with the rather annoying situation of having two feedburner accounts and no way of transferring feeds between them, as the “key” is coming back as invalid, while the confirmation email contains a link to the wrong place. Basically I cannot log in to Feedburner via the main page for my new account.

Kind of frustrating!
