A comment on the problem "Incorrect redirection after deleting a check in." in Brightkite:

I click the trashcan icon. A popup comes up that says, "Are you sure?" I click OK and am redirected to the page of the specific checkin that I had just tried to delete.

Hm, I just tried it again and it worked. Something must have fixed it. – Sonja Foust, on August 04, 2008 17:55

Can you detail exactly what happens when you try to delete something? Do you get the confirmation pop up at all? Thanks. – Lesley, on August 04, 2008 17:51

My wife was also unable to delete certain checkins... this one for example: http://bit.ly/4rlffG – Will Norris, on August 04, 2008 17:03

Yes, my deleted posts are still showing in my stream and I just tried again and the delete button is still redirecting to the wrong page. – Sonja Foust, on August 04, 2008 14:46

Sonja, I just tested this and it worked for me. Are your deleted posts still showing in your stream? – Lesley, on August 04, 2008 14:39

Also, I don't think it's deleting the posts either.

A comment on the problem "Incorrect results from location search" in Brightkite:

Tried a couple lookups tonight and business/location search has gotten noticeably better. Whatever you're doing, keep heading in that direction. Thanks for your work!! – Steve Baker, on July 07, 2008 08:41

Looks fixed for me today!

brightkite.user.js

var elt = document.getElementById('phone_help');
if (elt) elt.style.display = 'none';

Greasemonkey FTW!

Yup, I see notes and pictures doubled up.

Ben, we are looking into the duplicates right now. Thanks for letting us know.

Ben, this is something that we will get in there soon.

A comment on the problem "Incorrect results from location search" in Brightkite:

Thanks, Lesley. At least there's some sort of workaround. For now, I've moved away from SMS entirely. m.brightkite.com is really helpful - hope the team keeps rockin' that. :-) – Steve Baker, on July 02, 2008 22:02

I never see *notes* in my stream doubled up, but yes, I do have lots of *check-ins* that are doubled up. Weird.

Ben asked a question in Brightkite on July 02, 2008 21:29:

Why aren't urls auto-linked in comments?

It would be nice if urls were linked in comments like they are in main posts.

Not a huge deal, just a pain to cut and paste them each time.
