In Query method of BloggerService occured an error. This method throws an 
exception with follow message: 

Exception:Execution of request returned unexpected result: 
http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?q=brasilMovedPermanently

I'm searching the term "brasil".

The product version is the 1.8 of 5 may. This error started from 23 may in all 
of my searchs. I'm using the Windows 7 and .Net Framework 4.

Hi Eduardo,

Thanks for reporting this issue, I'll perform more tests to reproduce it.

Eduardo,

The queryUri must be passed by your code to the BloggerQuery class, which is 
then passed to BloggerService.Query.
It looks like you are passing the wrong uri to those methods.
If you still haven't found the issue, please share your code with us so that I 
can check it.
Thanks

Claudio

Hi Claudio,

The problem is on the parse method. When the class going to parse the result, 
the framework throws an exception. I think that this problem is a new 
limitation of the Google API.

Can you share your code so that I can reproduce it?

  var service = new Service("blogger", ApplicationName);

            var query = new FeedQuery(string.Format("http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?hl=pt-BR&lr=&q={0}&ie=utf-8&output=atom", text));

            var atomfeeds = service.Query(query);   <--- Exception!

Eduardo,

That feed url returns a MovedPermanently response and links to the new url, 
which has the following format:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=pt-BR&lr=&q={0}&ie=utf-8&tbm=blg&output=atom

The corresponding feed is parsed correctly when there are no special character 
encodings, such as with a few Portuguese characters.
I guess somewhere in the code the wrong encoding is enforced.

BTW, this is not related with the Blogger API, Google Blog Search is a 
different product which is not officially supported by this library.

If you want to propose a patch to fix this specific encoding issue, I'd be glad 
to review it and merge it into the project.
Thanks

Claudio
