Terris Linenbach's dashboard

Delete, don't truncate URLs

Truncating at 140 characters often chops up URLs. Can Twitterfeed back up to the start of http:// (or https://) and delete all of the URL instead of creating invalid (or worse) links? See http://identi.ca/notice/1548123 . Detecting whether it's a URL requires backing up until you find http:// https:// or whitespace.

I just installed the latest, 1.7.9, and the performance for listing a directory is either 100 times slower than the year-old version I was using, or there's an endless loop bug. After 5 minutes it still hasn't come back yet. This used to be great software. What's going on? I'm a licensed user.

There are sites (e.g., google) that have spell check in IE7 but who knows what god-awful javascript is being downloaded.

I've switched to using IM anyway. I don't know how you can make revenue if you aren't able to show me advertising. Good luck with that.

Is IE7 on Vista a major browser? There are no squiggly red underlines under "sadf" etc.

Want spell check when entering a message via dashboard

Good reply but not really new information. I apologize for not being more clear, but I think that ping.fm should ask the user what to do AFTER the user clicks send/post and the altered message is too large when directed to a service that has limitations. Of course there could be defaults because most users would want messages to be chopped up into multiple messages, but there is always the chance that users would want to shorten the messages.

140 character limit

I think if my message turns out to be > 140 characters for identi.ca or twitter.com, the message should not go out or ping.fm should ask if the message should be chopped up into multiple messages. Due to URL rewriting it is not completely easy to know when you've gone over the limit.

http://identi.ca does it right. No need to wait for Twitter to get their house in order.

Reply-To is broken

When I "reply to" a comment it would be nice if Twitter would link to the actual comment I'm replying to, not to the person's latest comment that consistently has nothing to do with what I replied to.
