tabulator and google reader notifier oddness

If you’ve ever tried installing the Tabulator (Tim Berners-Lee’s experimental linked-data browser) and not seen it work you may have run into the same problem as me.

On a hunch I guessed that there might be some weird interaction with another Firefox plugin — so I went through all 15 of them, disabling each one and restarting Firefox to see if Tabulator would start working. Sure enough, after I disabled Google Reader Notifier the Tabulator worked fine.

I dropped a message to public-semweb-ui, but figured it couldn’t hurt to add this here for other linked-data nerds casting about in google with the same problem.

    You mean it’s not just me? I’ve tried the extension a couple times but never got it to do anything recognizable, so I thought I just wasn’t smart enough to use it. I still might not be smart enough, but now I know that the blank display might be more that just my (mis-)use.
