Maybe it's a crazy idea, but when you try to update by sms it's hard to tell the exact plaze because it has a long name, and it can end creating a new one.
Maybe each plaze should have an alias, so the name could be long and descriptive for a web/plazer use but easy to call from mobile platforms.
I have been using SMS (USA: +1 718 407 9566) to post to Plazes, and the last time it worked was on Sat. October 4th, is there something wrong with the number or... thanks
I tried to create a new Plaze via SMS from a UK network over the weekend. This failed. I did not receive an acknowledgment. I sent the message,
"At Royal Southern Yacht Club in Port Hamble"
from a UK network. I have since created the plaze using the web interface. I often, (usually), find that plaze creation by sms fails; I have had this occur on a number of occasions.
The SMS messages generated by twitter can be over the 140 character length and thus deliver over two SMS messages. I have definitely seen this before twitter turned off SMS forwarding. (This may only occur if the originator defines an activity. I am not sure what happens if one is in a very long place name.)
When I try to enter my mobile number in my profile to use PlazeSMS, I get a message saying that number is already registered.
I've never registered for Plazes before this week. I am, of course, the only one with that mobile number.
Your e-mail support told me I'd probably registered before, with another email address (I haven't) or directly with my mobile (how would I have done that?) creating the account associated to the mobile number (whatever that account is).
So... I've tried requesting passwords from all the email accounts I might have registered with - and there is only one.
I've gone to Plazes.com with my mobile to see if there was anyway to login there differently, but no go.
What now are my options?
I am unable to associate my mobile phone with the Plazes service - which renders this service almost useless as I am in the mobile industry (hint...we'll be on the same team soon)
