Looks like Ancyru beat me to it, but the character counter has been added for all services that don't have a strict limit.

We are definitely planning on adding a character counter to all services that don't have a limit. Hopefully we can get it out to you guys soon!

A Character Counter would be great!!! Please implement this.

Personally, I hate web apps....they feel like cheap knock-offs of real apps, and are far less easy to use. I'd love a native app...I'd probably replace twitteriffic and maybe even facebook with Socialthing!

And yes, the push services in the background with allow for Socialthing! to update while not running. That is, if the developers to decide to implement push notifications.

Well, with the upcoming version 2.1 and the push services finally coming an app running in the background (kind of like MobileChat does) would make sense, don't you think...?!

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt since they've been in talks with AOL about acquisition (which is now official)... hopefully, after things cool down, they'll be back in here checking the bugs

I did mention this to them 2 weeks ago and they said they were looking into it. Not sure how much has progressed. http://bit.ly/2K1LbN – Ancyru, on August 14, 2008 22:59

Unfortunately, the peeps at Socialthing! either don't monitor their Get Satisfaction account or they don't think this issue warrants a response. It has been almost a week since this has been reported and nothing official yet.

I have to stand corrected since it's no longer working. I suppose it's back to using the actual Ping.fm interface to get my updates through and back to ST! to check on them.

I haven't tried posting to anything but ping.fm from the iPhone, but I get the same error. Any word from the official reps yet?

Ancyru replied on August 13, 2008 21:06 to the problem "iPhone web app error when posting to Ping.fm" in Socialthing!:

Oh...I didn't know that was the case for others. I think what I did was remove it and re-add it again.

Then I still received the "resend error" but updates were still going through. Perhaps try that?

Ancyru replied on August 13, 2008 21:04 to the idea "Character counter on post status via newly integrated ping.fm" in Socialthing!:

I'm pretty sure a character count would be implemented rather than a limit.

For now when I'm using Ping.fm to update to microblogging sites, I just enable Ping.fm AND Twitter checkboxes so I have the limit displayed while still posting to all services.

Ancyru, I have not noticed that behavior in my experience. My posts are definitely not going through.

I think just having a character count would be fine - not a limit per se like Twitter et al. But since I use ping.fm to update my Twitter, it would be nice to see if I'm getting close to 140 or not...
