flickr now supports GeoRSS so I tried to put it on Google Maps, but it
maps each photo twice....

Sample GeoRSS feed:
http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=51525230@N0...

Google Maps with this feed:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=http://api.flickr.com/service...

Any other RSS readers such as GoogleReader, IE7 or Safari2.0 never
shows this kind of double count, only happens on Google Maps.
I tried all RSS format described here but the results is same.
http://www.flickr.com/services/feeds/

Does anyone know the solution?

Thanks.

I think this is related to a recent update to GeoRSS format output by
flickr, it now outputs the GeoRSS info in two flavours - it used to only do
one. Who's responsibilty to fix not sure. Ideally flickr should only output
one GeoRSS set of data - on the other hand Google should be able to cope
with having the two versions in a feed.

will post a comment on that blog post to see if can get flickr's reaction...

Hmm... hopely both party to talk to fix it in case it still happens
only on Google Maps.

BTW GeoRSS reader/mapper in Yuan CC Maps handles very same GeoRSS feed
correctly.
