Hi David - your request for two way RSS is coming out this Tuesday evening. We will allow people to RSS their Spock news anywhere they want. Also, if you have a Twitter feed, you can easily add it to your news feed on Spock.

I Love Spock's reply to "I hate data harvesting, and I refuse to use your service." was just promoted to the most useful! Maia and 3 other people think it's one of the best replies.

Spock understands if you are uncomfortable with your information being on the Web. Please see our About Page which gives you steps on how to maintain and check where you are on the Web. Unfortunately to fully remove yourself from everything this includes a lot of paperwork and time.

Our suggestion is to use Spock as a launching pad for all the areas you're on the web. With Spock you can control the information that's presented about you by using the voting triangles to vote down erroneous information.

We also have a size limit to pictures - if the page hangs while you're trying to upload a picture, try uploading the same picture but in a smaller size or lower resolution.

Hi ChrisG - can you go ahead and email me personally at maia@spock.com so I can look into this for you?

Maia replied on January 28, 2008 21:20 to the problem "locked out of account" in Spock:

Hi Jeff,

I think I reset it for you, so you should be able to access your account. Let me know if this is not the case.

Best,
Maia

Maia replied on January 28, 2008 21:18 to the problem "Why is there no search result for my name?" in Spock:

Hi Adrienne - This is probably because you haven't been included in the search index yet, since you signed up so recently. We don't yet have real-time indexing; instead, we periodically add all new sign-ups to the search index so that they will be included in the search results. If you check back later, you should be able to find yourself.

Maia replied on January 24, 2008 20:38 to the problem "People API Failures" in Spock:

Hi Andre,

You're correct - that's the time frame we're looking at. I would guess that the API will be up in about a week and a half, but I can't make any promises.

I apologize for the inconvenience. Good luck with your application!

Maia replied on January 24, 2008 20:35 to the problem "locked out of account" in Spock:

Hi Jeff,

You should still be able to login to your Spock account using your old work email as a login, even if you don't have access to the email account. Once you're logged in, you can request another validation email to your AOL account.

The reason you weren't getting the validation email was because you had previously unsubscribed that email address. I went ahead and and re-subscribed your AOL address so that you will get your validation email.

Maia replied on January 24, 2008 20:00 to the problem "People API Failures" in Spock:

HI Andre - You're right, the People API is down for the moment. We're working hard to fix it though, and it should be fixed shortly - in the coming weeks at the latest. We'll let you know when it's back up and running.

Maia replied on January 22, 2008 23:38 to the problem "How do I delete an email address that is no longer valid?" in Spock:

If you accidentally set up two accounts, the easiest way to solve your woes is to request to have them merged, as shown here: http://getsatisfaction.com/spock/topi...

Maia replied on January 22, 2008 23:35 to the question "how do I remove and update photos? I do not see this anywhere!" in Spock:

Hi Francesca,

If the photo is offensive or inaccurate, you may flag it for review. Otherwise, you can vote it down by clicking the small blue triangle, then clicking "No" (unless you uploaded it: then click "Change Vote", then "No")

Maia replied on January 17, 2008 17:42 to the question "How do I remove cached information?" in Spock:

Hello - It's easy to remove outdated information: just flag it for review. You can see here for details: http://www.spock.com/do/pages/help#flag

Maia replied on January 17, 2008 00:14 to the question "I just signed up but I'm unable to find myself through your search. What's the problem?" in Spock:

Hi Dan4th,

We had a bit of trouble with our index, so we've rolled back to one from a couple weeks ago, which explains why you're not in it. You should show up in the next week or two.

Maia replied on January 16, 2008 19:03 to the question "I just signed up but I'm unable to find myself through your search. What's the problem?" in Spock:

Hi Dan,

Can you let me know what searches you should be showing up under and aren't? Thanks!
