Today I noticed that my google calender displays birthdays that I haven't entered manually.

So, it works, finally!!!

Thank you!!!!!

So, where can I set reminders? I need three reminders: (1) One week before by email; (2) One day before by email; (3) One minute before by SMS. And I need all three reminders for ALL my contacts' birthdays – Olga Yermishkina, on September 11, 2009 08:57

Add auto-repeat feature for the whole calendar (for Birthdays)

Hello,

I've created a separate calendar (in "My calendars" list) where I store birthdays. The problem is, each time I add a new birthday I need manually set "Repeat yearly" for each birthday. I think it would be very nice if there was a "Repeat" field in calendar settings, somewhere near notification settings.

Best regards,
Olga

Friendfeed as OpenID provider

Hello,

I think it would be very nice if friendfeed worked as OpenID provider. It integrates all my services, so it would be reasonable to use it as identity page - people could go there and see who I am.

Best regards,
Olga

Yes, I have tied my OpenID URL to my IntenseDebate account.

Good luck in your research! – orie, on December 08, 2008 09:39

can't post comment with openid login

I try to leave a comment on my friends blog, which uses intensedebate for comments (http://nano.rulix.org). I already have intensedebate account and I want to use it to authorize.

- I click on "Or post using OpenID" link.
- I enter my openid url
- I click on "Submit comment"

And now I get this message: "Dear OpenID user, unfortunately your provider did not give us all the info we need. Please fill in your credentials below to proceed!" and I need to enter my Email and Username.

What the hell? I already entered Email and Username during registration. I don't want to do it again!

OK, I try to enter them, but I get messages "This username is already in use" and "This email is already in use". Of course, they are in use, they are used in my account, and I am trying to login to it!

I made about 7 tries, and actually one of them was successful - I managed to post a comment. But I can't repeat it even at the same browser session.

Re-requesting authorization (in pidgin) fixed the issue. Thanks for your work! – orie, on December 03, 2008 21:57

Hard to guess spelling in Gmail Themes settings

When I enter my city in Gmail Themes, I need to write the whole word, and only then it shows that this city exists in the database. If I have wrong spelling, the city isn't found, and switched to default (Moscow for Russia). It is not good, because spelling is not always clear for non-English names (eg. Sankt-Petersburg or Saint Petersburg). Perhaps it would be better to add dropdown list with cities, or something like "suggest" in the city field.
