Check-ins via both SMS and E-Mail failing
I've been trying to check in at locations during the day using SMS and Mobile E-Mail all day and it's been unreliable at best. Using the web interface is inconvenient, so it would be a boon if this could get stabilized.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Kichigai, can you give us a few more details on the problems you're having? Are SMS and email unresponsive? Are you getting errors? Also, who is your mobile carrier?

It's unresponsive. I'll send something in, and it won't reply. It only occurs sometimes, however. My carrier is AT&T, though my phone is unlocked. I'm using GMail for e-mail, and on occasion Exchange mail via Mail2Web (mostly GMail, however). -
Inappropriate?With SMS are you experiencing delays or is it just not responding to you at all? Do you get good cell service where you are located or could network issues be delaying your SMS messages? Gmail has been having some troubles today, so that could be what's causing your email problem. We actually just had to take email posting offline because of the issues resulting from this.

For SMS, it seems to vary. Nine times out of ten, it's reliable, today it's been a little iffy. Twitter via SMS is fine, but not sure what that means. BrightKite just wasn't responding. I'd check-in, and nothing would happen. I take a shot at it with e-mail, and it worked fine (until later, when the GMail issues apparently began) I just found out about the GMail issue myself, so I've been trying to do more stuff via Exchange now (my provider is a little slower, but at least it works).

Sometimes there are outages with our SMS aggregator, which can cause delays and sometimes unresponsive SMS messages. You can friend us on Brightkite (username Brightkite) where we will post status updates about things like this. :)
