Our Singapore server is now back online, with a new number: +65 8262 9845.
Unfortunately, we had to bid farewell to our earlier Singapore number. We are not able to recover it.
Please update your phone or address book with our new Singapore number.
And if you would do us favor, we would appreciate if you could also inform your friends about our new number. :)
Our Singapore number is having issues. We will update at the end of today, May 7. In meantime, do not send in messages to our Singapore number.
Thanks for your understanding.
The Singapore SMS device was malfunctioned this morning. We did not get notified until @chrissyypoo alerted us. Sorry for the delayed messages, we have successfully delivered all delayed messages from Singapore.
We are currently investigating what went wrong and update you guys on what actually occurred.
The Singapore SMS feature is up and will be monitored closely.
Update: A glitch occurred on the software that checks the SMS device and it stops checking for new messages until we restarted it.
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.]
Due to the recent Twitter attacks, Twitter is redirecting traffic away. This pending update takes care of the redirection to increase reliability. gladlyCast will be up again on today (Aug 10), 1:15 am. This minor update does not affect your SMSes, however, your updates to Twitter will be delayed till 1:15 am. Please be patient.
Update 1:11 am: Core Twitter service updated. Now testing update.
Update 1:27 am: Everything is back up.
Oh and by the way, if you’re having problems with signing in with Twitter and happen to have a 3G modem, use it to sign in. The sign in problem is partly due to SingNet or Starhub. You can then use back your normal internet connection to access Twitter subsequently.
We made two Twitter backgrounds to celebrate the occasion — Singapore’s National Day. We thought we share with anyone who’s interested.This is the bigger version that is currently used in @gladlyCode’s Twitter.
And here’s a version with a smaller NDP 2009 logo used in @gladlyCast’s Twitter.
You can have the backgrounds with big (Save target as) and small (Save target as) logos.
Do anything you want with it — scribble words, put your photographs, just enjoy them. (:
