Currently can't check in from the web. Tried through the search bar and my place marks list. In both cases the page reloads (or throbber throbs), but I'm still checked in at my last location.
I last checked in about 3 hours ago from SMS, but the time in Brightkite is off by 2 hours. (Says I checked in only 1 hour ago)
My updates don't appear on my public stream despite having my Everyone Else privacy settings set to "city". The last item on my public list is from last evening, but I've checked in twice (failed check in not included) and posted at least 4 notes since then.
My notes and pictures don't cross post to Twitter despite having Twitter sharing enabled and the appropriate privacy settings.
I would love to keep using this application (would in fact use it as a proxy for Twitter) but it seems like it's still too broken to be reliably usable, even for a beta.
I'd like you to be able to poll my twitter location as set by twitterific/iPhone every once in a while. This way, I don't have to search for a location, and when I'm not updating, people can at least get a general idea of where I am via my twitterific twitter location update.
Conversely, twitter could push you my location data if they were willing to do so. I like you to be the receiver instead of the provider.
Brightkite is in public mode, I have my Twitter user name and password entered and it's set to post any Brightkite notes to Twitter. A friend of mine on Brightkite has no trouble getting her posts sent to Twitter.
Brightkite posted my last checkin to twitter 40+ times and people are not happy, I'm losing subscribers and I didn't change anything. I turned off twitter integration for now until this is fixed, I am daveevans.
When I post notes via SMS or e-mail (even when photos are attached) random spaces end up in my posts (mostly in the middle of words). It's not really much of a problem as it is an annoyance.
The title says it all. Somehow someway I posted some stuff today that posted as "private" when... I have my account set to public... I wanna change this. I was pretty disappointed to find my bkite submissions today didn't sync with twitter correctly.
I'm in public mode, the location I'm checking in at has a its privacy set to "According to my current privacy mode" yet my check ins aren't updating twitter even though on the Sharing tab I've got the checkbox checked for "When I check in at a place, post my checkin to Twitter."
Is it something in my Private mode filters, even though I'm in public mode? I wouldn't think so because there's a note that says "NOTE: These privacy filters only apply to things you do in private mode." but I'm at a loss for why this isn't working.
For what it's worth my Private mode filters are as follows:
Trusted Friends Friends Everyone else
Checkins Exact City Hidden
Posts Exact City Hidden
When I post a note to BrightKite, I have it automatically sent to Twitter. I really like that BrightKite shows the character limit for a note - 140 - but because I have this forwarding to Twitter, I'd like it to have some way of taking into account the number of characters that the additional BrightKite URL adds to my note (and therefore to my Twitter post).
For instance, if I post a 140 character note that goes to Twitter, it is shortened on Twitter because the BrightKite URL is added too. The only way round it is subtracting 25 characters from my 140 limit, so I know when to stop typing to create a note that shows in full on Twitter.
(Also, this is further compounded because I have Twitter feeding my Facebook updates, which means my updates may have a message then a "..." cutting off the end of the status update.
When sending a message through Brightkite, it says "from web" when it should say "from brightkite". This would help you advertise the service and build some name recognition.
i've activated twitter and checked »When I check in at a place, post my checkin to Twitter.«.
i've customized the variables to show »$place - $link«.
for »$place« it says »place name«. but my tweets show up like this: http://twitter.com/poolie/statuses/85...
my photo updates made through the brightkite web interface don't update to twitter. my privacy is set to public and i'm set to share photo posts to twitter in account settings. iphone email photo posts work though.
BK double posted to Twitter this morning. What happened was ping.fm pushed the status update to BK which then posted to Twitter (I have BK set to do that). Five minutes later the same post was posted to Twitter again from BK. It was in BK only once.
My Brightkite posts are no longer getting cross-posted to Twitter, while I see that my Brightkite friends' posts are. Furthermore, those same friends are no longer appearing in my Brightkite stream on the website. I've turned on SMS to see if they come in there, but so far I've received nothing.
