the green tick showed straightaway :T which made it easier for me to know where I had reached. Normally, I'd have to refresh the page before the green tick would show.

The green tick now shows automatically when I go back a page

I think the green tick not showing until refreshed is a problem due to using IE9.

Before I upgraded from IE8 the tick showed immediately.

Is there a way to get this to tell you if you have been mentioned on facebook, say if they post winners on their wall? I have set up twitter alert but cant work out the facebook option?

You'll notice that it's beta at the moment, testing and unfinished really so I'd imagine that's probably going to come. Personally I'd like it to do that with #Google which would catch FB too first.

If you setup a specific email AC just for this and comps it could be a really good thing to remind you of weekly and other things that you need to remember like stuff posted here but not live yet...like a daily to-do list.

It told me to get my washing off the line today lmao..set it to warn me of rain by text and it was right

Another good thing is messages, for eample I can post a comphere that starts in a week or so, and make a reminder on there and anyone interested can go and use that recipe too which makes it really easy.

I love it,so simple and I hate to remember smething decent just too late don't you

One thing this CAN do that's brilliant ....you can set it to post tweets for you automatically every day or week or even hour.

Make a new task
Select time/date and choose a time and interval
Select twitter and copy/paste the tweet in there
name it with maybe an end date and comp name

From then it does them for you automatically

You need to replace the 0 for the international prefix

447980 instead of 07980 ..that bit's not 100% clear IMO should work though

Hmmm I tried
07980
007980
447980
and none work?
It goes through to next step when I use 00 but no pin arrives. Tried it 3x last night. Bit frustrating as I know I would get loads of use from it. Thanks anyway

it flipping worked 00447980!!!
