Recently active problems in I want Sandy about Twitter

Stop the "Time for a tweet?" message! I set up Twitter, follow Sandy and she follows me, and I get my messages without any problem. But every time I log in, I get this message:

"Time for a tweet? Twitter private text/SMS messages to me from your cellphone or instant message me from your desktop. Have reminder tweets delivered through Twitter to your mobile, desktop, or anywhere else you're tweet-able! Click here to introduce your Twitter self to the Twitter me."

How can I make this stop?

I've tried to get Twitter and Sandy to play nice together, but it's just not happening. I went through the guide to making this happen, almost no success.

I can get Sandy to follow me and me to follow her. I got the confirmation Tweet very quickly. I get the test Tweets almost instantly. But that is where things end.

I've tried copy and paste-ing the examples. All I'm seeing is that my message was sent when I use Pidgin from my GTalk account. But when I send the same message from the Twitter website I am told that the user doesn't exist.

Um, what? I don't think I can follow someone who doesn't exist.

There are no replies and no direct messages from Sandy on the Twitter site.

I really don't know what else to tell you so that I can have this working right, but I'll be happy to answer any questions that could help lead to the solution.

Here was I wanting to pose to my kids that (1) Dad's alll high tech and (2) Dad can actually remember to do something!! And Sandy let me down :-(

Why? Because I sent in reminder for "tomorrow" and it got all nicely set up, but I had changed my "remind me" setting to 7 days before as I like plenty of warning for things. However, of course, this means my "tomorrow" reminder was "due" 6 days ago and so has disappeared into the ether :-(

Would it not be worth some "intelligence" being applied to reminders so that if its less than the default reminder time it either asks you to stipulate the reminder time or at least warns you that you won't be reminded.

Might be nice to have a few reminder 7 days, 3 days, 1 hour and 30 mins before so you get advanced warning to e.g. go buy present then further warnings to take it round ;-)

Hi,
Really thought I had found a site that would do everything I wanted but find that when I ask her for e.g. my ToDo list via Twitter I just get my first item - how unhelpful is that :-(

Personally I would like each list item to come through as a different Twitter, that way I can easily reply and knock them off the list as I do them and still have a running list of those outstanding. I realise there's a 160 character limit but doubt anyone will have a list item of longer than that!!

Hi,

After changing my Sandy's email address, Twitter direct message requests seem broken.. )-:

(she doesn't even respond)

I tried turning twitter off and on again... no luck.
