Quakk Fixed and Tweeter Tags Launched

Posted in Development on Saturday, Saturday, February 07, 2009 by Anthony Burns

Howdy Quakk fans.

It seems the nice folks at Twitter made a change to their API a couple of months ago that caused all applications built with the .NET framework to fail when posting status updates. Unfortunately I've been too busy with another Twitter related project (details below) to fix Quakk, until now. You can download and install the fixed version from the Quakk webpage.

Now that we've got that over and done with, I'd like to introduce you to Tweeter Tags. It's an idea that's been created by a team of four people who met over Twitter, and we built it in less than a month. It allows you to assign tags to your Twitter profile, so other folk with similar interests can find you, and you can find them.

If you're into photography and you want to find people on Twitter that are into it too, simply sign up, add the photography tag to your profile and then click the tag to see who else has tagged themselves with it. If you're having a problem with SQL Server and want to find some SQL bods to grill about it on Twitter, then click the SQL tag and we'll show you who to ask.

For more details check out the Tweeter Tags Blog or if I've sold the idea to you already, then get yourself straight to the Tweeter Tags website.

Program installs, but won't run. I check the Program files Quakk subdirectory, and it's empty, everything installed directly under Program Files. Do I need to manually move something to get it to work? Thnx
