I had this problem a few months back and it was fixed. I believe it or a variant of it is back as I've been watching the stats carefully and the new followers that I know well are now following and things just don't add up. Appreciate if a twitter support techo can check this out cos it is very frustrating.

Uploading photos these days is completely useless for many people, myself included. There could be a "import photo from flickr" feature, or any other photo hosting service, there could even be the option of BK updating the photo's geotag

I just hope the followers magically return once the fix takes place.

Or a method for getting more content *into* BrightKite: Query flickr for recent photos near the location...

Found the answer on the twitter status blog

"Some elements of the sidebar temporarily disabled 41 minutes ago
We’ll be turning these back on later this afternoon.

Update: The replies, everyone and archive tabs have also been temporarily disabled and will be restored later this afternoon"

This really does not bode well for Twitter. They are obviously in way over their head and can't support the service they claim to offer. If they have to shut down the service every time there's a load what's the point of growing?

No one can rely on a service that is randomly turned off at the developer's whim.

I have long placeholder names :)
How about a description field?

John, can you give us a few more details on why you need this to be longer?

Thank you.

pre-date my movement

How about adding the ability to enter the date and time I will be somewhere, then I don't have to worry first thing in the morning. I know I could email or use my mobile. But well I don't want to

another way of geotagging AND getting pictures into brightkite places would be using the flickr API to find a user's flickr photos in a given timeframe which matches a user's checkins.

Come on people, you are not being very imaginative! I bet they integrate with Eye Phone and do something Snow Crash-ish:

i agree also, i seem to have problems understanding the purpose of bright kite, I have a blog, flickr account even tumblr account so why do i need bright kite to post images and notes? Intergrating other services sounds ideal, when I'm at an upcoming event bBK could be updated, when i post an image via shozu to flickr this could be tagged as a place i'm at also. I don't know i'm just trying to find a use of BK that's easy, doesn't need me to keep login in to a site to do things i do in other locations just so others know where i am.
sorry
