Twitter / Plurk picnic in Singapore

If you're in Singapore, you may like to check out a Twitter and Plurk picnic coming August 29 at Botanic Gardens, Singapore. It's potluck-styled so be sure to come with the nicest food and any forms of entertainment you can think of.

You can RSVP for the event here and check out who's bringing what here.

Last we checked, there are 35 attendees and no ants. So if you have yet to make plans coming Saturday, consider joining wonderful persons like jerricklim, simplyjean, yuhui, daphnemaia, uniquefrequency and victan.

Have fun! Sugianto also blogged about this event here.

[If you have any of this sort of social events (tweetups, plurkups etc), just tweet us @gladlyCast, we would love to spread the word for you.]

Scheduled maintenance 22-Sep-2009 @ 2 AM

We are scheduling a homepage refresh for gladlyCast on September 22, at 2 AM, lasting about 15 minutes. This update enables a pending feature and requires a change in our homepage.

Delivery of Twitter status update is not affected in this update and there is no expected downtime. So once again, it’s Tuesday morning 2 AM, 15 minutes. On a totally random note, we have a Plurk page and a purple logo. You can friend us there.

  • Update 2:00 am: We're performing tiny homepage and have chosen not to go offline.
  • Update 2:10 am: Update has been performed - we are supporting another conversation universe - Plurk

Now with Plurk

We are most excited to announce support for one more conversation universe - Plurk.

We have been discussing on the possibility of supporting Plurk since a month ago. One of the priorities we had is ease of use and reliability that is similar to what we offered for Twitter.

We finally agreed our Plurk feature is good to be released for your usage. Plurk SMS support is offered to Singapore and Malaysian users. To update Plurk with your handphone, just sign in with your existing Plurk email and password.

Unlike for Twitter, gladlyCast requires your email and password here. If you have associated your phone number with Twitter already, sending an SMS to gladlyCast will not only update Twitter but your Plurk too.

Have fun (:

In the spirit of Emmys, we'd like to thank you for all the little feedbacks we have been receiving.

This feature would not be possible without Plurk too. Thanks everyone. You should friend us at Plurk too if you have one.

Tips for users with Twitter and Plurk:

  • SMS in "w twitter message" or "w t hi" to update Twitter
  • SMS in "w plurk hi" or "w p hi" to update Plurk.
