Jonathan started following the question "Bye all" in BlinkList.

Jonathan replied on December 19, 2008 23:48 to the question "How does the Firefox blinklist "save the current page to view it offline" extension work?" in BlinkList:

Doesn't work for me - when I click the blinklist "save the current page to view it offline", all that happens is that I get an unresizable window pops up with the blinklist homepage.

That's all.

Jonathan replied on December 17, 2008 18:32 to the problem "Strange dates in blinks" in BlinkList:

Please note, a blink dated "March 31st 2006" in a users blink is listed as "four months ago" in the front page.
March 31st 2006 is not four months ago, unless someone set their date wrong on your computer?!

How is the migration coming along?

"Recently blinked" front page not showing any new blinks

"Recently blinked" front page not showing any new blinks - only stuff from four months ago

Jonathan replied on December 17, 2008 10:13 to the question "Need an updated logo" in BlinkList:

Er, this might sound like a silly question, but have you tried editing their logo yourself?

Bump! Is it just me having this issue?

Jonathan replied on December 15, 2008 19:19 to the problem "Links not refreshing on Firefox 3" in BlinkList:

Is it possible that your copy of FF3 has Gears enabled, and the other one doesn't, hence you are seeing a "stale" copy?

Jonathan asked a question in BlinkList on December 14, 2008 20:31:

Have blinklist support giving up supporting blinklist?

Over two weeks since any updates from the Blinklist twitter update (http://twitter.com/blinklist/) and looks like a week since anyone supported us here or in the Google group.

Is that it then? End of blinklist? Given up?

Why so many Google adverts for gay men?

I am not gay. None of my blinks are about gay stuff. I have no problem with people being gay, but it is bad advert targetting that on most pages, all the google adverts say things like:
---------------------------------
Find Rich Gay Men In UK
Meet Gay Rich Men From The UK. View Profiles 100% Free. Join Now!
---------------------------------
Someone needs to check their adwords settings

Tags missing from blinks

Although I now appear to have a lot of my blinks back, many of them are missing their tags. This seems to be the same for others as well.

Jonathan asked a question in BlinkList on December 09, 2008 13:46:

How can I see how many blinks each url has?

Before new Blinklist, there was a box for how many people had blinked a URL.
Now this has gone - how do I see how popular it is and how who else blinked it?

Jonathan asked a question in BlinkList on December 09, 2008 13:42:

How do I post a tag list as a url link?

I've just noticed that the new Blinklist breaks all the links to my lists that I have posted in forums. For example: http://www.blinklist.com/digitaltoast... - used to link to my ZenCart tagged links.
When I click a tag now, because it uses frames, the URL does not change.
So, how do I find the URL of a tag list? (And where is the help function?).

Jonathan replied on December 09, 2008 10:03 to the question "Is this the alpha or early beta?" in BlinkList:

Just looking back through the Blinklist group - I wonder why those beta tests never happened?

Strange dates in blinks

I notice that a lot of my older blinks are dated
Blinked -0001-11-30 00:00:00
and many other users say "Blinked 28 years ago".
Surely Blinklist hasn't been around that long?!

Comment count is not updating

On the front page, I added a comment to the most recent blink, which happened to be the user vsithasa (called "wassup test") http://www.blinklist.com/tag/wassap%2...

Now, look at his blink - it says no comments. But I made a comment several hours ago!
So, if you click "0 comments", my comment is actually there.

Jonathan replied on December 08, 2008 19:14 to the idea "Please tell us what is happening" in BlinkList:

What really does my head in is that, on the blinklist group, several people offered MONTHS AGO to be beta testers. We were ignored.

They reap what they sow...

Jonathan asked a question in BlinkList on December 08, 2008 09:42:

How does the Firefox blinklist "save the current page to view it offline" extension work?

All that happens when I click it is that it take me to the blinklist main page.
Where does it store the page? What happens if I uninstall gears? Why can't I find the page?
How to I get back to the local copy of the page if the website goes away?
And where is the Blinklist help/FAQ?

Jonathan replied on December 06, 2008 22:13 to the question "Why am I getting tags in my active lists that I have never used?" in BlinkList:

I am now getting "asian porn star" tags added to my blinks, and it seem to be random - one minute they are there, another they are not.
Sometimes it appears in the Active Lists section...
