I have tried several times over the last 3 days with no luck. TweetPhoto still does not work with Sprint. – Alefifer, on July 15, 2009 22:09

Alefifer reported a problem in Pikchur on June 18, 2009 16:01:

Uploading from Sprint cellphone

I have sent 2 photos from my Sprint cellphone to my pikchur email address and neither photo has shown up.

Am I right that Sprint won't work with Pikchur yet? I hope you guys fix this. thanks.

Looks like I'm in the same boat as Lisa and some others. Sent off two photos tonight as a test and neither made it.

Hope you guys can figure it out to get the sprint pictures to work. I remember reading over at Twitpic that was an issue they had to resolve in the past as well.

Am looking forward to you resolving this issue.

the problem seems to have remedied itself for me. I feel it was only a temporary glitch that may perhaps have been related to connection issues. Thanks for looking into it.

A comment on the question "Don't disable web accounts" in Loopt:

or if not a web link to send a "turn back on web" sms to phone, how about allowing user to send an sms to loopt with "enable web" as a message. just a thought. – Alefifer, on June 08, 2009 19:06

I think the turning off of the web capabilities is counter-productive. I appreciate the action with regards to account security but convenience for the user is decreased. I didn't use Loopt on my phone today because I was at home all day, and I don't want my home location displayed on Loopt. Yeah ...I know I can go online and delete it but it's easier just not to use loopt when I don't want to post my location. I'm still new at loopt and learning. Nobody I know is willing to try Loopt, so for me it has no functionality greater than a personal log anyways.

Maybe you could add a routine on your website for those accounts that have been temporarily suspended...where you could send a text to the phone from the site as an additional method to turn back on the website. One that could turn on the website for the user without updating their Loopt location by clicking on a link sent to the phone via sms.

As to Julie....the salesperson should never have sold you on Loopt as an phone location application. That's clearly not its function and never has been. It's too bad you were misled.

eh hold on...

okay the third time worked. the loopt site had to send 3 texts to me before I got one. I'm all better now.

I like this question.
Without added features like retweet and direct messaging the Twitter abilities of Flock will only attract the very casual Twitter usual.

To those that use Twitter more often it will only be a novelty since they will most likely be using clients like Twhirl or Tweetdeck or utilizing Twitter enhancement sites. I use Twhirl myself, and occasionally some of the online enhancement sites (like twitiq for example) and still had to use them back when I was still using Flock because I needed the additional features. So .... if twitter users still have to use other twitter clients/sites/tools while using Flock... then it's twitter abilities are just a novelty and is therefore just "bloat" I mean , yes it's cool...and I'm hoping you will eventually add more functionality...but until then it's just something else that slows down the browser, eats up system resources, and adds perhaps to the frequency of computer crashs.
