System is back online. The backup/replication was taking too long, so decided to do it later tonight when things are quieter. |
Taking the system down for a few minutes to finish up some database replication. Back shortly. |
@MoneyMender : Yes, you can directly follow within Twitter Grader -- but it requires logging in first (top of page). |
UPDATE: TwitSnip is now using bit.ly for URL shortening. Will also add click tracking at some point. http://bit.ly/nTry |
@AlexSchestag : It's a personal philosophy thing. I prefer getting software into the hands of users early and fixing things quickly. |
@coyotesqrl : This is on my list. Do you know of a data service that makes this info available? |
Ok, looks like I broke something. Most recent update seems to be causing issues. Working on it. |
UPDATE: Friend Suggest feature now (once again) provides better variety of suggestions (not just the elite users). |
UPDATE: Twitter Elite by location is now *much* smarter and includes variations of city names (U.S. only for now). |
@dizastor : That's a good idea. You could slowly "train" the system over time so it could (hopefully) deliver better suggestions over time. |
UPDATE: Fixed some bugs -- including one with the following / follower list views. Thanks to those that reported it. |
Writing more progress quips for the next version of Twitter Grader. For some reason, I mostly write these after 2:00 a.m. |
Ok, suggested friends feature is now back. Keeping an eye on it, if it misbehaves, I'll take it back out. |
@gopalshenoy : Got it working again, I think Please retest. |
One bug down: TwitSnip is now working again. Please try it and let me know if you have issues. Now, working on getting suggest friends. |
Twitter Grader is going through some database query surgery. The system is up and running, but suggest friends is disabled for now. |
System has been having too many outages recently, and I don't know why. Back up now and trying to figure out what's going on. Sorry. |
Spoke too soon. Still issues with the API. They're working on it. |
"Marketing in a Recession" - free webinar this Friday. Last webinar was sold out, so sign-up early. http://hubspot.me/?TIJNK |
Working Again: Looks like the nice folks at twitter have resolved the issue with the API. Things seem to be working. |
