Problem with "lookup" via twitter
I have tried to use lookup via twitter. I've got other commands working, but whenever I use lookup, I get back a message about how to use the service, rather than the results o the lookup.
I’m disappointed

Inappropriate?Hi proinsias,
Can you paste an example of a lookup you sent via Twitter?

Inappropriate?I did: d s lookup today -
Inappropriate?Howdy Arosien,
Does this still not work for you today?

Inappropriate?This works for me too now - thank you :-)
When I lookup today, I get the first item - I'm sure I read something about doing a lookup for the next item, but I can't find it now. Can someone point me in the right direction? -
Inappropriate?I tried:
d s l @todo
d s lookup today
and variants thereof. -
Inappropriate?Howdy,
I'm glad this is working for you now.
We do have on our list a "lookup next" or "l next" but no immediate timeline for it as we have a few things in the works that would also need such interactivity ;-) and so want to help Sandu get it just right for both situations.

Inappropriate?What was the source of the problem? Just curious.
Also, is only the first item returned via twitter because of message length limits? -
Inappropriate?Hi Arosien,
The source was a mistake we made in the back end of things — nothing that would be useful to explain in great detail. But we found and fixed it pretty quickly and know to look out for it next time.
And, yes, the reason Sandy only returns the first matching item via Twitter or Jott (with SMS reply) is because of message length limits (140 characters doesn't give you much breathing room, I'm afraid).
