A comment on the question "iPhone interface to IWS?" in I want Sandy:

I am using IWS on my iPhone, but it is excruciatingly slow, and I have to zoom on each page. It is a *real* pain to use. – Olivier Gourment, on July 24, 2008 01:57

I second this idea. For people with more todos than meetings, this would be a time saver.

Howdy, folks.

Sandy caught up a little while ago and you should have received your missing digests (and a couple of reminders that were scheduled for the past 30 minutes or so).

Again, I'm sorry for the lack of response (both in terms of reminders and posting here on GetSatisfaction)!

Heh. Given that I'd not had a chance to catch up on my Twitter reading today, it was handy to have growl on my Mac flood my screen with a day's worth of older messages (from Sandy and elsewhere) ;-). – Rael Dornfest, on June 10, 2008 00:49

Same problem here. Just got a reminder about an 11 am appointment at 6:05 pm. NOT GOOD! This makes Sandy pretty incompetent. – Sherman, on June 10, 2008 00:20

Thanks for getting on that. Lots of dm's flooding in as we speak. I thought twitter might have been the ghost in the machine.

Hi again, folks.

Sandy was indeed stuck again — most likely triggered by difficulty sending Twitter reminders. Now Twitter reminders obviously shouldn't be interfering with those that go out by email or SMS, but it seems they have indeed been doing so.

We're taking a look at the cause of the blockage and will work to further disconnect Sandy's Twitter reminders from all the others.

In the meantime, Sandy's doing some catch-up and should be completely up to date in a few minutes.

I apologize profusely for the missed reminders!

Hi folks.

I'm sorry I didn't see the new activity on this thread — it's hard to discern sometimes whether something's new or another person just started following an older GetSatisfaction topic. But that's neither here nor there...

I'm taking a gander to see what's causing some of you not to get email reminders or digests.

As for Twitter, as I just posted on another thread, they're doing some rate limiting while under heavy load, which means that Sandy's reading her direct messages and responding to them as quickly as she's allowed to by Twitter's API, but there will definitely be some delays on anything going through Twitter.

Back in a moment with another update.

No reminders since Friday, even via email--and not even a response from Sandy to direct messages via Twitter (but no problem with other direct messages to others with Twitter)
