A comment on the problem "New Feed "Not Checked Yet"" in twitterfeed:

If you let me know your twitter account and/or feed URL I can take a look. Without this information there is little useful info I can provide. – Mario Menti, on June 19, 2008 21:33

A comment on the problem "New Feed "Not Checked Yet"" in twitterfeed:

Hi - these feeds don't contain date/time stamps or GUIDs on individual items. twitterfeed needs at least one of these. Not sure where the source feed comes from, but can you try and use a feed that contains pubDates and send that to feedburner? Quite often, using RSS 0.92 doesn't contain dates, while using RSS 2.0 and Atom do. – Mario Menti, on June 19, 2008 21:32

I would like to understand how to use this better, but I am not happy with the "How it Works" portion. I want to invite people, then be able to address them directly. Once I have addressed them directly, will anyone else of my invites be able to see the message I have sent to 1 person? So confused!!!!!!!!!!! And How do I do a group send out? is this possible yet? – Coby

We are also having this problem with our feeds?

One feed is set to 30min and the other is 1 hour.

The feed addresses are at:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/DVDTOWNnews
http://feeds.feedburner.com/DVDTOWNre...

Our Twitter account name is: dvdtown

Thanks,
D

Yes, there was a problem with the processing of some of the hourly feeds, which should be fixed now. If you switch them back to posting every hour it should now work - but please let me know if you find any issues.

Not sure whether you did anything, but I switched the feeds to 30 minute intervals and they are working now!

Ruby Sinreich replied on June 12, 2008 19:51 to the problem "New Feed "Not Checked Yet"" in twitterfeed:

The only working feed is my 30-minute one. The two I mentioned above are both set to 1 hour updates and have still not received any content. It's been about 3 or 4 hours now.

Well one feed just showed up, so maybe it's just being slow getting started...

Ruby Sinreich replied on June 12, 2008 17:32 to the problem "New Feed "Not Checked Yet"" in twitterfeed:

I'm having the same problem. I set up a few feeds with 30 minute and 1 hour intervals, about 2 hours ago and none of them have updated.

These should be posting to http://twitter.com/forpeace and http://twitter.com/orangepolitics among others.

when i think about groups for twitter, i think about sending an update as a kind of direct message to everyone in the group. to make sure they dont miss it.

i mainly just want to be able to let my close circle of friends where i am, what i'm up to. i don't want an acquaintance or a frenemy or whatever knowing what's up and inviting themselves along.

I think this may be related to using pubdate rather than pubDate (see also http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.guezr.com%2Frss%2Frssfeed.php). If you could fix this and test again, then let me know if it still causes problems. – Mario Menti, on June 10, 2008 19:22

create a new twitter account for your inner circle and mark the updates as protected. sign up that account with http://grouptweet.com/ . you control who sees the updates (who is a member). – damon, on June 10, 2008 18:33

A comment on the question "When is Twitter going to get groups?" in Twitter:

For me, it's just a privacy thing. I'd like to let my closest friends know (geographically) where I am, without letting the whole world know where I am. So, I guess, a semi-private communication service; I could do it with multiple recipient SMS outside of Twitter, but I like and am now regularly using the twitter interface (and twitterberry) so it would be convenient to be able to tweet my inner circle in this way. – theclimbergirl, on June 10, 2008 18:10

Doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose of having a public twitter stream? I'm trying to figure out if what people want in the groups feature is a way to not SMS-spam their "further" followers or actually some form of semi-private communications service.

Considering that Twitter sees itself as a "follow-based" or "recipient-based" service when each person chooses how much of the firehose they'd like pointed in their direction, my first conjecture about spamminess seems moot.
