Machines Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Don't get too excited ! It'll be used for any important site news/ events coming up or any outages we experience, hopefully with info on a fix time. Please feel free to add @basschatuk ! Quote

Machines Posted October 16, 2010 Author Posted October 16, 2010 Like I said it won't be used a lot just for announcements etc.. It will only complement the forum not attempt to replace its functionality . Quote
WarPig Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Ah great Now we can know why the sites down if it goes again, rather than panic and wear our mouse out refreshing the page Quote
Cat Burrito Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Sorry I'm sure most of you don't need the link but for those like me with the interweb skills of an 85yr old the link is [url="http://twitter.com/basschatuk"]http://twitter.com/basschatuk[/url] here. I appreciate I could be (& should be) publically mocked but I had to go through quite a mini investigation to get to it! Quote

Machines Posted October 19, 2010 Author Posted October 19, 2010 Ah that's ok then, not having this forum associated with those silly fruit phones ! Quote
charic Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Fruitphones... Must remember that. I've been meaning to get into doing android apps might have a look into a bc one Quote
BottomEndian Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Can someone set something up to send out a tweet every time Wayne posts "IBTL"? I need my quick fix of controversial threads. Quote

[/quote] My thoughts precisely, and it can have one! Well, in a way... Tapatalk is a forum app for iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone 7 and Symbian (Nokia & other smart phones) that makes reading and posting to forums soooo much nicer an experience on the wee devices. You even get push notifications of replies to subscribed topics/forums, PMs, etc., and posting pics is [i]easier[/i] than on a PC. The Tapatalk app just calls the forum data (as opposed to downloading whole web pages, like a normal browser does), and formats it perfectly for the mobile device, making it easier for the user, using less data and taking load off of the forum server into the bargain. It just needs a free plugin to be running on the board software to enable it. If you've ever tried the [url="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/talkbass-forums/id402780591?mt=8"]TalkBass app[/url] you'll know how much nicer it is to use than the full forum! Have a look-see about it [url="http://www.tapatalk.com/"]HERE[/url]. I've suggested it [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=119746"]HERE[/url]. If you like the idea I'd appreciate a post of support. After all, I honestly don't think there's a reason not to. Cheers, Stuee Disclaimer: I am in no way affiliated with Tapatalk and these are all my own words; I just really think it's a great idea! Quote
