I have uploaded an image as a logo for my group, but now I can't change it to another image. When I go to the "edit this group" screen, browse for a new image then save the group, the old image still appears.

By the way, "Sorry for this problem, this is a bug in our code , we shall fix this in a day or two" is not sufficient cause to mark the issue as resolved. You should leave this as an open issue until you've actually fixed the problem, not just until you promise to fix the problem.

I'm having the same problem too. I just created my first group (http://www.slideshare.net/group/busin...); if I go to the main group screen, I see the list of members in the sidebar, but if I go to the members screen, the list is blank.

Okay, working for me. It picked up both of my blog feeds and send the message and link to identi.ca. Thanks!

Mario, you totally rock! I will test this (I'm using identi.ca) and let you know how it works.

Feedback so far: in my list of Twitterfeeds, the left column always points to my Twitter address, even for feeds set up for identi.ca -- I have to actually edit the feed to figure out which is for Twitter and which is for identi.ca.

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 29, 2008 18:15 to the question "Any plans to support identi.ca in the Overheard tab?" in Get Satisfaction:

Scott, thanks for your reply. I'm seeing a rapid adoption of identi.ca amongst the tech community, who are probably also more likely to be Get Satisfaction users.

identi.ca now has a Twitter-compatible API, which made it possible for Twhirl to release identi.ca support so quickly. Also, search results in identi.ca all provide RSS feeds, which is another potential method of integration. Of course, I have no idea how you're actually integrating Twitter, I'm just thinking that integrating identi.ca could provide a significant reach into the leading-edge tech community for a relatively small effort.

Any plans to support identi.ca in the Overheard tab?

The Overheard tab is great -- I didn't even know that it existed until I received an auto @reply that one of my tweets had resulted in a new topic. Are there any plans to integrate an identi.ca search for a company into the same stream?

Never mind, I just found a way to thwart your attempts to resize my window: http://osxdaily.com/2007/04/11/disabl...

Still, resizing of a potentially shared browser window should never be done.

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 29, 2008 11:07 to the question "Bigger Windows Are Better!" in Obeo:

Thanks for picking this up on Twitter!

I typically have my browser (Firefox) open, placed and resized where I want it on the screen, with several tabs open. I don't want a site that I visit to resize that window, since it impacts all the other tabs that I have open as well. Proper browser etiquette is either open your own window (not tab) and resize it, or leave the size alone.

I already use ping.fm to post to multiple services simultaneously. I'm looking for something that will do what twitterfeed does, but for identi.ca: in other words, every time I write a blog post, it turns the subject and tinyurl into a tweet without my intervention.

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 15, 2008 19:02 to the idea "Twitterfeed to Identi.ca" in twitterfeed:

Exactly, I didn't mean identi.ca specifically, but really anything laconi.ca-based. I'll keep watching to see what evolves!

Twitterfeed to Identi.ca

It would be great to have a version of Twitterfeed that can post to Identi.ca, too: more of a microbloggingfeed than just Twitterfeed.

I love being able to have a link to my blog posts cross-posted to Twitter, but I still need to enter them manually on Identi.ca. Eventually, when the microblogging services start to adhere to the open standards, we could all be using different platforms, and need to have tools like Twitterfeed that can update more than one platform.

Thanks for the reply. I realize that this is OT for this thread, but how do I identify everything that probes FF3?

I noticed some correlation with Gtalk activity, so I've disabled (but not uninstalled) that as well. Soon I'll be back to DOS. :(

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 10, 2008 01:28 to the problem "RescueTime crashes Firefox 3" in RescueTime:

I have exactly the same behaviour, but have never had RescueTime installed so it may not be the culprit. I do suspect Adobe Air or something related to it, however: I have uninstalled it and am trying that out for a while.

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 07, 2008 15:52 to the question "Can I use Ping.fm with Identi.ca via OpenID?" in Ping.fm:

You don't receive a recovery code, you should be redirected to a page where you can enter your new password.

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 04, 2008 12:52 to the question "Can I use Ping.fm with Identi.ca via OpenID?" in Ping.fm:

I tried the workaround again today (requesting password recovery from identi.ca) and it worked, so I'm good to go now. Thanks for your help!

Sandy Kemsley replied on July 03, 2008 19:40 to the question "Can I use Ping.fm with Identi.ca via OpenID?" in Ping.fm:

That doesn't work for me: identi.ca never sends me a password recovery email (I assume because I originally signed up using OpenID).

Just to clarify, I do the following steps:
1. Logout from identi.ca
2. Click Login
3. Click "Lost or forgotten password?"
4. Provide my screen name or email address (I've tried both) and click Recover.

I've checked that my email is correct on my profile, so that's not the problem.

Is there any way to access identi.ca directly with the OpenID credentials?

Sandy asked a question in SlideShare on December 04, 2007 15:22:

Can I get an RSS feed of all my contacts' slideshows?

I know that I can subscribe to an RSS feed of each of my contacts individually, but is it possible to get a single RSS feed of all of my contacts, such that when I add a new contact, their slideshows are automatically added to the feed?
