Should be fixed now. I had to change some code to deal with their changes, but it looks all good now. Please let me know if it works for you.

Thanks for letting us know!

Drat! Looks like Facebook changed something. I'm on it :)

Jonathan replied on March 04, 2009 21:16 to the question "Modify CSS" in ScribbleLive:

We currently only allow our Enterprise customers to fully customize the skin on the embeds, but we are going to roll out some more customizations to the free version very soon. If you let me know exactly what you would like to skin, I can try to make sure you can configure that. Mainly just the colors?

For anyone else having problems with the greater-than/less-than tags being stripped out of your posts, I think it might be this issue: http://www.red-sweater.com/forums/vie...

A comment on the discussion "What features should we build next?" in ScribbleLive:

We would love to find an elegant way to do that. It's not a technical problem to do, but everyone seems to be pissed when people "live-tweet" something because it fills up all their friends' Twitter feed. Any ideas? – Jonathan, on February 18, 2009 03:04

I'm looking into this asap. I think there might be a problem with our new soundmanager and the iPhone :( Thanks so much for reporting it!

Jonathan replied on February 07, 2009 06:38 to the question "How are "live watchers" computed?" in ScribbleLive:

Great, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't using up your Twitter API limit. It's just a search limit.

I've contacted Twitter to find out what the rate limit is for searches, but for now I set it at 5 seconds, or when you hit ENTER while in the box.

Can you please do me a favor and copy/paste the results of this page from your browser? http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit...

Jonathan replied on February 05, 2009 16:29 to the question "How are "live watchers" computed?" in ScribbleLive:

Ahhhh, I think I know the problem then. I'll investigate and try to get a fix in there (which will probably just be slowing the search down a bit). Thanks!

Jonathan replied on February 05, 2009 05:35 to the question "How are "live watchers" computed?" in ScribbleLive:

Unfortunately, it was probably Twitter search being down that caused the problem so we're kinda at their mercy there. I'll pay extra attention to it over the next 2 days and maybe I can code a workaround if I can see the exact problem.

But no need to logout/login to try to fix it. Worse-case, if it looks broken for a long period of time, you can try a reload to see if that helps.

If it makes you feel better, the stats up until 11pm EST tonight were probably way off ;) Remember too, that's how many are on there RIGHT NOW. The "re:create 2009, Nashville TN" event had over 400 unique visitors today.

Le site Web francais sera prete en environ 2 jours!

While an event is live, it counts everybody on www.scribblelive.com, in the iframe embed, or crossposted (as long as it's not crossposted to Wordpress.com -- they block our Javascript).

Funny you should ask about metrics :) We just rolled out new metrics code tonight that uses http://whos.amung.us/ , so the numbers should be a whole lot more accurate from now on.

Thanks for asking!

1) 24h timestamps are coming this week (hopefully)
2) We're going to change it so the "edit" links pop-open a box where you can type all accented characters. Look for that in the next few days.
3) Good point. We'll add a "ScribbleLive" class to those elements.

Jonathan replied on February 03, 2009 15:37 to the question "Event Keeps Closing every few hours ..." in ScribbleLive:

Hi! Right now, events close automatically after 1 hour without a post and need to be reopened by one of the writers. I see your point when it comes to long events like yours though, and we'll definitely work on a solution as soon as possible.

For reference, only you (the creator) has the ability to close the event via the big red button :)

Jonathan replied on February 02, 2009 18:12 to the question "Edit Description, please?" in ScribbleLive:

Under "Creator Permissions" in the right-sidebar there's an "Edit" button. From there you can update your title and description. Cheers!
