+1!

Chris Thomson shared an idea in Wakoopa on July 04, 2009 05:02:

We need more categories for our usage graphs, "Internet" is too broad...

The usage graph on my profile is probably about 80% filled with the "Internet" category. Is there any specific reason why the graph isn't this more specific, like "social networking", etc? :(

It'd also be nice if Tweetie supported filtering by regex, like Twitterrific for Mac does (although, Twitterrific does it through defaults write ...).

A comment on the problem "How can i stop an impersonator?" in Twitter:

Chris - there's a link in the red section of the page (above) that allows you to stop following this thread. :) – Chris Thomson, on May 13, 2009 20:35

Chris Thomson replied on May 05, 2009 00:56 to the question "Username links to home page, not profile?" in blippr:

Ah, I see. I just noticed that my avatar links back to my actual profile. I'll just use that link instead, I guess. :)

Chris Thomson reported a problem in blippr on May 05, 2009 00:55:

GData APIs for importing Gmail contacts?

It'd be nice if blippr used the GData APIs to grab contacts as opposed to asking for a username & password.

Aside: do google apps (hosted) contact lists work with the blippr friend importer? I can't seem to get that working...

Chris Thomson asked a question in blippr on May 05, 2009 00:53:

Username links to home page, not profile?

I'm a little confused as to why my name, as in "Hello, Chris Thomson!", links to /home. Shouldn't it link to my profile? If I was looking for the homepage, wouldn't I just click the blippr logo instead?

Chris Thomson replied on April 28, 2009 02:26 to the question "Multi account" in Wakoopa:

Yes, you can use Wakoopa on multiple PCs. The right side of the tracker download page has more information about this.

Chris Thomson replied on April 28, 2009 02:16 to the idea "Wakoopa as a software update notifier" in Wakoopa:

Until this feature arrives (if ever), AppFresh is another useful updating solution for Mac users.

Chris Thomson replied on April 28, 2009 02:14 to the idea "Tracker running as a 'daemon'" in Wakoopa:

You can now run the Wakoopa Tracker as a menu-bar-only app on your Mac. Just open up the tracker, go to Wakoopa Tracker > Preferences > General, then "Disable Dock Icon."

Chris Thomson replied on April 23, 2009 22:41 to the question "Find username?" in Twitter:

When you originally signed up for Twitter, did you sign up using your phone or on the web? If you signed up via SMS, try using this form: http://twitter.com/account/complete

Are you receiving any sort of error message? Are you trying to send a direct message or an update/tweet?
