not getting tracked "overheard" tweets...

every other word that i track seems to work fine, but i'm yet to receive a tracked message while tracking "overheard". seems strange because twitter says that it's the most tracked word. also at http://overheard.it/ there seems to be tweets coming up all the time

Looks like they've been working on a system where you can select what @ messages you get on the home page.

Hopefully fixed now. Nice work Twitter!

one way would be to burn your feed at http://www.feedburner.com/ and distribute that feed url.

only problem would be people subscribing directly from your twitter page would get the old url... hmmm tricky one.

Yep, same. They seem to be messing around with the @ system over there in twitterland... hopefully it's fixed soon

tinyurl conversion problems with Wikipedia entries that have (brackets)

A lot of Wikipedia articles contain urls that have brackets. Usually the Google Talk tinyurl conversion is great, but seems to have problems with these urls:

See this tweet: http://twitter.com/phocks/statuses/45...

Note: if you manually convert these urls at tinyurl.com it is fine.

Great work fixing this. Lookin' good!

There's this official one, though seems a little out of date:

This wiki at Microformats is a little better. We could make it complete by updating it:

what's the error you're getting?

your password should be sent to the email you signed up with, hopefully

send "untrack all" that should do it.

phocks replied on November 28, 2007 12:57 to the problem "I'm getting tweets from people I don't follow via IM" in Twitter:

if you are using twitter's "track" feature it will return tweets from people you don't follow if the text matches any words you are tracking.

type "track" into twitter and it should return whatever you are tracking.

send "untrack all" to twitter to stop tracking anything.

If you are not tracking anything and you still get the messages, then it's probably a different problem.

styles on individual tweets have text flush up against the sides of the speech box

back in the old days before the style changes, individual tweets looked much prettier. now they just look kind of lame
