    Shashin uses the WordPress WP_Http library to read the Picasa RSS feed. This error indicates your hosting provider is not allowing outgoing requests. See the suggested solutions for the same error with the Jetpack plugin here

    I have installed the Jetpack by WordPress.com plugin version 2.5 without any problems.

    Surprisingly, the Jetpack plugin is working fine and is able to connect to wordpress.com.

    Is there a function in the Jetpack plugin that I need to enable to test?

    Please do let me know what. Thanks.

    I was referring you to that Jetpack post for an explanation of this type of problem. There is no relationship between Jetpack and Shashin. The error means that Shashin cannot make an outgoing call to Picasa through the functionality that WordPress provides through WP_Http (which provides robust functionality – it means that your hosting providing is restricting the ability to make outgoing calls).

    Mike,

    Oh! My bad for misunderstanding what you were trying to say.

    Looks like my host provider is bad.

    Thank You for the explanation. Learn something today.
