Known Issues to fix

Sometimes on loading the Main Deck, the mini-windows do not open. Refreshing the page usually fixes this.

Sometimes on loading the Main Deck, the mini-windows do not refresh with new Tweets. Refreshing the page usually fixes this.

Need to add support for the new ReTweet functionality.

The Twitter API sometimes thinks you have 20,000 calls per hour. This is a known Twitter API bug.

The "more" option should default to only the available options, such as follow only when you are not following the person etc. Twitter API seems unreliable at the moment with follow stats, holding off until it has settled down.

Occasionally when opening a mini-window, the tweets are duplicated. Refreshing the page usually fixes this. Bug to be fixed when possible.

Browser compatibility - currently only tested on multiple browsers on Windows XP machine. More browser testing needed and possible fixes applied where needed.

The first time you try to reply/retweet, the box opens as empty - but works each time after that. No idea why. Fixed - Only seemed to affect Firefox, so on page load flash open/close the dialog box seems to fix the problem. More of a sticking plaster than a real bug fix.

Migrating

Have migrated the prototype application to its new long term home and after a bit of fiddling, it seems to be settling in, choosing carpets and furnishings etc.

Once I am satisfied it isn't killing the new webserver will announce the "alpha release" to people to get feedback on the concept.

Obviously lots more to do to get it out of the "ugly duckling" stage and create the swan that we all want.
