Hi!
Do not fear! The plazer is still there.
After logging in to your account, go to http://plazes.com/manage/plazes_exten... (or click "Manage" in your upper right hand bar and then "Plazes extensions" in the leftmost menu) and you can download the Plazer for Mac and for Windows systems.

At the moment the plazer does not work on x64 machines, yes, and it would need profound modifications to the code to get it working on x64 systems. It's most probably not going to happen, sorry :(

Hi, are you on a 64-Bit Windows?

Philipp J. K. replied on December 10, 2008 11:13 to the idea "Scheduled plazes?" in Plazes:

Hi, theoretically a great idea - but i guess this would place an additional load on our backend server when scheduling tasks to add them to the RSS at the moment of them happening - and not at the moment of their creation by the user. It would mean to rewrite quite a part of the software behind plazes.com :)

Philipp J. K. replied on November 24, 2008 12:22 to the problem "SMS Plazing me incorrectly" in Plazes:

Hi,

sms plazing is a big topic and would require a fair bit of time investment, time we are currently spending on other big projects. There will be probably no fix for the issues arising with the way sms syntax works.

For now, the most complete reference to sms plazing can be found here:

Hi,

maybe our new mobile site, m.plazes.com, could be useful for you.

Philipp J. K. replied on November 24, 2008 10:13 to the idea "Add plazes by coordinates" in Plazes:

Hi, dragging the pin when editing a plaze should now be possible again - we fixed a bug that caused the pin to disappear.
Could you try again and tell us if the problem is still there?

We are sorry that some of the advanced features on the website are not available on the mobile site - but sometimes the technology is not yet ready to do the things we'd like to do :(

Philipp J. K. replied on November 18, 2008 11:07 to the question "Why is my plaze not in the exact location?" in Plazes:

Good news, crew!

The bug has been fixed - the pin is back.
Thank you for your patience :)

Philipp J. K. replied on November 14, 2008 15:16 to the question "Why is my plaze not in the exact location?" in Plazes:

Hi all,

there is a bug in the edit page for the plazes, the pin is currently "in vacation".
We will make it come back in the next couple of days, fixing the bug :)

A comment on the question "What is Plazes tweeting?" in Plazes:

probably because you entered your twitter username into the Twitter extension on plazes.com. We however need you to insert the email you have registered with twitter. – Philipp J. K., on September 15, 2008 12:59

Philipp J. K. replied on September 15, 2008 12:58 to the idea "Integration with Upcoming (by Yahoo!)" in Plazes:

Hi,

great idea, thanks! We will look into it!

A comment on the question "What is Plazes tweeting?" in Plazes:

Hi, this usually happens if your profile is private or the activity you created is set as private. Also, did the twitter integration work for you before? – Philipp J. K., on September 15, 2008 11:50

Philipp J. K. replied on September 11, 2008 14:44 to the question "Mergin plazes" in Plazes:

hi guys,

you are absolutely right, the possibility to merge plazes would be a great thing. sadly, that would mean almost re-writing all the code from scratch, and considering that, as peshir said, user-triggered merging of plazes would be a really big mess of a can of worms, there won't be any news in the near future about that. however, it always comes up also in our meetings. we won't forget about it. promise.

Philipp J. K. replied on September 08, 2008 14:18 to the question "How do I set my time zone?" in Plazes:

Hi,

based on the location where the activities takes place the time zone is set automatically.
What do you mean exactly by "off track"?
All the best,
Phil

Philipp J. K. replied on August 21, 2008 13:21 to the idea "twitter message length" in Plazes:

Hi Dave,
as you know, every message sent to Twitter is truncated at 140 chars, so there are only two ways how this can happen:

1) twitter appends other information (longer than 20 chars) to our 140 char message in which case we can do nothing about it or
2) some characters used in the title of the activity are non-standard (like ₧₤¥➢➦➛⇐∀⊥⊄∈∧⊕⊄≅ĹĽĶĘĠÑÉċŽćťŝň and similar) and might be encoded inside the sms using more than one character. this could lead to one sms being encoded in 160 characters but containing only, say, 140 letters. still, this is very improbable.
Do you recall on which activity tweet you received more than one sms?
