That doesn't seem to be the case in safari 4.
I'm looking at my last post in the unbound column from 6:32 PM and it's now 10:30 PM.

Twitter refresh

It looks like the refresh button no longer reloads new Twitter content. Only posting to twitter or reloading the page will load in new content.

A comment on the problem "WOAH! 557 new messages. Did Facebook change their API?" in threadsy:

I figured that was it. Facebook is changing a lot by the end of the year. It's tough to keep on top of it all. We're dealing with the same thing. – Mike Garrett, on December 09, 2009 19:31

Nope. I was at work and everything was fine. When I got home I had 557 new messages. I tried refreshing, clearing cache, etc to no avail.

It's just FB messages, too. Not the email usually associated with getting a FB notification.

WOAH! 557 new messages. Did Facebook change their API?

All my old facebook messages and comments have reappeared as unread messages.

One-click Address Book

I just read about the release of Thunderbird 3.0 and nothing really caught my eye until this:

"One-click Address Book is a quick and easy way to add people to your address book. Add people by simply clicking on the star icon in the message you receive. Two clicks and you can add more details like a photo, birthday, and other contact information."

I'd love to see something like this integrated into Threadsy, especially if it was all pushed to the contact manager of your choice (address book, google.com/contacts, etc).

Email address links go out of threadsy.

Links in an email to someone's email address direct you to the system default email client.

I definitely understand that. There's a way to call a new window that doesn't incur the wrath of the popup blocker, right?

New Facebook replies don't open if you have a popup blocker enabled.

New Facebook replies don't open if you have a popup blocker enabled.

When receiving a message from Facebook, the reply button "Takes you to Facebook reply..." but it doesn't work if you have a popup blocker enabled.

This is Mac OS X, safari v4.0.4

Over Capacity

Looks like the latest round of Beta invites has sent you guys over the edge. Congrats! Sounds like the adoption rate is really high. Time to upgrade.

Cool.

Mike Garrett marked one of scott's replies in threadsy as useful. scott replied to the problem "Increase thy leading".

Mike Garrett replied on November 23, 2009 13:53 to the problem "Increase thy leading" in threadsy:

Ha. Sorry. It's a type term. It just means you need to set the line-height in your CSS to a greater value. The decender in the p is overlapping with the capital S. Minor issue and mostly just irksome for designers that stare at type all day.

Increase thy leading

That is all.

Looks fine to me. You'll get used to it.

Mike Garrett replied on November 20, 2009 01:49 to the problem "Facebook showing wrong photo/info for me" in threadsy:

Well... sorta. It found me and it only pulled in info about me, which is great. That works really well. The downside is there's no way of saying what info should be pulled in and which shouldn't.

For example, in my bio it's pulling in the twitter description from my twitter account where I post my music, one that I don't even associate with threadsy. It's pulling in the image from a twitter account that was associate with where I work instead of my main account. Then it's not pulling in any education info from linkedin (I assume) and it's pulling in wonky mashes of code and text for work.

Apparently I'm "Sleepy's, Dog" or I worked there or something. I don't even know where that came from.

But yea, in conclusion it pulls in only information.

Delay when replying

After the upgrade today (I really like the changes to the UI) everything seems to be moving a little slower (a lot slower), especially the reply-to function. The content takes 1-2 minutes to load in after hitting reply.
