At 8:30 PST yesterday Loudtwitter server stopped responding. This morning the Tech Support told be that the motherboard is dead. I don't have access to the data on the server for now. I'm trying to get a hold on the backups, but since the main server is down this is taking more time.
I wanted to recap what are all the options you can use to filter tweets sent to your blog (or email).
I've added a new feature that I think might be really helpful. You can now filter the tweets you want to post on your blog (or send by email). I believe it can help reduce the signal/noise ratio that goes into your blog (and to your readers) provided you think about ahead of time.
I had a bit more time in my hands lately (thanks to my lovely daughter who is now sleeping through the night, yeah night is when I can do this kind of stuff), so I used some to show some love to loudtwitter, and hopefully if all goes well, there will be more to come.
I've enabled the great TypePad Connect on this blog, it improves commenting a bit, notably by enabling threaded comments. You shouldn't be presented the CAPTCHA that often anymore too.
Hi all,
For the last couple of days loudtwitter is working in a degraded state because Twitter arbitrarily changed its rate limits.
To get your tweets loudtwitter is pulling the information from your public page, which worked well until the change. Now one computer can only fetch tweets a few times per day. Since there are 10.000 accounts on loudtwitter it doesn't really work. I've contacted twitter about that issue, and I'm waiting to hear from there.
Stay tuned.
I've just renewed loudtwitter's domain (thanks to donations), which remind me that loudtwitter is now almost one year old!
Long time no talk.
I've been quite busy with other projects lately, but in the meantime loudtwitter quietly and largely past the 1000 user count. In fact, as of today there are 1300 registered users. YAY!
I didn't expect that much interest - especially from LJ community when I started this little project for a friend, but I'm glad loudtwitter makes your life easier. I have to apologize for being slow on adding features despite many requests. There are two reasons for that: I'm very busy with my $dayjob and I don't use Loudtwitter myself. So it's hard to make the decision to add a feature or not: is it really useful? Is it worth my time?
Anyway, I've just added the ability to add text *before* the post in addition to *after*. Among other things it will allow LJ users to use the LJ-cut feature that popefelix described to me.
And in case you missed it, loudtwitter suffered from a large spam attack two days ago, so email posting was down for a while. I hate spammers.
Loudtwitter server has been attacked via lots of SPAM two days ago. It looks like it's not completely back up... I'll look at this today
email posting should be back again. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you cross a spammer, please kill it for me!

Got an issue with Daily Saving Time (&%#*!)
and Sao Paulo timezone... It's solved and tweets are flowing again.
I just found an issue with DST, some of you changed time last night, and may received several loudtwitter posts instead of one. :(
