    New team members

    Posted by Tweetburner team on April 27, 2011 at 12:41 pm

    Hello there our fellow Tweetburners!

    Today we want to introduce two new fresh members for Tweetburner, Taylan And Michael.

    They will be taking care of Tweetburner to help us improve Tweetburner. They will also help answer the questions you have about Tweetburner. Just ask us!

    Furthermore they will help us to prevent people of making bad links with Tweetburner wich is keeping us off from twitter.

    As you have noticed it is not possible to share twurls on twitter due to spammers that are using our service.

    Taylan and Michael will also help us to solve the spam issues. If you have any tips or tricks for us please let us know via blog@tweetburner.com.

    Thanks

    Posting to Twitter blocked

    Posted by Tweetburner on April 13, 2011 at 5:57 pm

    We have been blocked by Twitter to post twurl links. We are still trying to figure out why. We have tried all available communication tools but they have not responded yet. I hope they inform us in the short run so we can update you guys. In the meanwhile you can replace http:// with www but that should not be the case for the long run.

    to be continued

    Bookmarklet and archive

    Posted by Tweetburner on December 10, 2010 at 2:03 pm

    We have updated Tweetburner. The bookmarklet tool uses the new Twitter authentication tool. You can remove the old version in your browser and drop and drag the new bookmarklet tool. We have restored the archive page and create new graphs in Your Stats. We are not there yet, so in the coming days you may experience some downtime when we update the site. If you have any feedback on the beta version of our site please let us know via mail or Twitter.

    Thanks

    The Tweetburner team

    New beginnings

    Posted by Tweetburner team on October 12, 2010 at 11:57 pm

    Tweetburner is hard at work getting the Bookmarklet Tool fixed up and ready for use. As Twitter evolves it requires those who utilize the API to evolve along with them. Evolution is a fact of life as well as a move in a direction to better serve all aspects of what is delivered to users.

    Along with the updating of the Bookmarklet Tool Tweetburner and Twurl.nl are hard at work trying to evolve our system to better server our user base with more tools, features, and functionality. We appreciate your patience as we reinvent the Tweetburner concept and prepare our system to deliver first class products and services to you.

    We(Tweetburner/Twurl.nl) have teamed up with Tweetburner North America, LLC (TNA,LLC) to achieve the improvements we are striving to bring to market. Stay tuned for further announcements on what is in store for our users, and more on TNA,LLC as we’ll slowly leak out bits and pieces of what you as a Tweetburner user have to look forward to.

    Again thanks for your loyalty during this time of growth and refinement as it is greatly appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    Tweetburner Team

    Botnet trouble

    Posted by Tweetburner on September 28, 2010 at 10:04 am

    Hi all,

    As you have noticed our service is functioning not the way it should. Our free service is being used by some botnet freaks to send useless spam. Such a shame that people still think they can make money by spamming. We do our best to find a solution to this problem and hope that you keep on using our service. When we have this botnet s*** behind us we have the time to increase our services and bring Tweetburner to the next level.

    If you have any suggestions how to get rid of these botnet losers let us know tweetburner@gmail.com

    Thanks,

    Tweetburner

    Update bookmarklet tool

    Posted by Tweetburner on September 6, 2010 at 7:39 am

    We are working on the authentication update for our bookmarklet tool. Currently it is not working properly. You can still use the shortner on our site and in the bookmarklet tool to shorten the url and share it via copy / paste. Twitter is not making live easier for the app developers. Especially the url shortner services;-) But we hope to have fixed it in the short run.

    cheers

    Tweetburner.

    Early bird, wake up!

    Posted by Tweetburner on April 19, 2010 at 10:23 pm

    It has been rather quiet around Tweetburner. Our apologies for that. We are still grateful that a large group of people is still using our service and that on a daily basis our user base is growing. Due to different projects that needed our attention we were not able to give the attention to Tweetburner that it deserves :-(

    We have some great ideas on how we can bring Tweetburner to a next level. In the coming period we will further work on these ideas. We are open for your ideas and would like to cooperate with other companies and individuals. Please contact us if you like to share your thoughts.

    Cheers
