I installed Songbird from the unofficial .deb packages at getdeb.net, so it's probably not the latest version. But would an upgrade really change anything?-

WindPower asked a question in Songbird on September 21, 2008 22:04:
Keeping profiles synced between Vista and Ubuntu?Hi, I'm dual-booting (Vista+Ubuntu) and I'm trying to make Songbird's preferences and library synced between the two OSes. Since Songbird is a XULRunner app like Firefox or Thunderbird, I thought it'd be as easy as it is for the two aforementioned apps: Edit profiles.ini in both OSes to make it point to the same location. Turns out it's not that easy: Everything seems to work, but Songbird can't play anything in Ubuntu, I presume this is because the path to each file in the library looks like F:\Music\Artist\Song.ogg in Windows while it looks like /media/Data/Music/Artist/Song.ogg in Linux. I've tried creating a symbolic link called "f:" and another one called "F:" at the root of my filesystem, pointing to /media/Data, but no such luck: Songbird won't play any music, showing this error in the error console:
"Error: 2152857618
Source File: file:///usr/share/Songbird/components/sbPlaylistPlayback.js
Line: 1182"
Is there any way to make both profile directories synced without these path problems?

solved.
A comment on the problem "Web not posting tweets from people I follow" in Twitter:
I noticed the same behavior earlier -- new tweets were intermittently getting interspersed with older ones (though I must admit I didn't try logging out and logging back in). As of now, my Twitter "Recent" stream has stabilized somewhat, and I only see new tweets coming in. If you continue to experience this problem after Twitter announces the successful completion of the 'backfill' process, my suggestion is that you start a new thread here in GetSatisfaction to raise the issue. [ As to being a self-professed 'cyberstalker,' I can totally relate to that! ] – mdy, on April 22, 2008 09:28
A comment on the problem "Web not posting tweets from people I follow" in Twitter:
Uum...what I could not figure is why the timeline was repaired and then went away again as if 'my cache' was corrupted again having tried to be repaired. Since then I have signed on and off and get different timelines each time. The last twice I have got Tweets globally and had the same timeline. What is strange is the 'yo-yoing'. As if it rebuilds but keeps hitting a faulty bit and jumps. What is amazing is that a few weeks ago I was not even a user and now I am actually concerned I cannot see the people I am following. I have become a cyber-stalker! – adrian moss, on April 22, 2008 08:51
A comment on the problem "Web not posting tweets from people I follow" in Twitter:
@biz mentioned above that they are "back filling the timelines" -- which to me means they're publishing all the tweets that we hadn't seen over the weekend. That explains why they're old. Once they've finished backfilling, things will have caught up with the present once again. 8-) As to geography, I'm not sure, but my guess is that you were seeing less US-based users right then because the tweets that were being back-filled or posted were sent hours earlier -- when people were still sleeping in the US. – mdy, on April 22, 2008 08:37

Woah, the timeline is all effed up now! Doc Brown, help! I am so confused. I do not know what Twitter was or what prayin' is. Tommy...TOMMY?
I tell you what good came out of this. We all learned how much we love each other and how much we miss each other in our little Twitterverse. I miss @MouseWords and "maybe" @Tindle, but not really. lol
We also all learned how effective getsatisfaction.com can be in bringing a problem pubic and getting some action. Okay, I know it's public. I'm not stupid. But I still want some pubic action.
Sincere thanks to @biz, @jack and @ev who I tease on a regular basis. But who is this Goldfinger dude and why is Twitter feeding him to the lions?
Catch up soon...

I've got good news. We've caught up with this issue and we're currently backfilling the timelines. This will take a few hours but once things are caught up, we should be back to delivering all updates in a timely fashion. Also, we will have successfully moved to the new memcaching scheme—which will make Twitter better, despite the bumpy road we took to get there.

Wow. I wrote a blog post, went to bed, and now the number of people on this thread has doubled. Thanks, twitter, for at least going public with the issue. You can't hide a three day outage. The best thing to do is put your hand up, admit you broke it, and get on with things. You've made a big step in that direction.

I followed J.Phil's advice, only I just un-followed one of my least favorites and that did the trick; that is, there didn't seem to be a need to find someone new to follow before un-following--unless of course you were afraid of losing them, follow? – quiteme, on April 22, 2008 00:50
