Well, now I do believe we have finnished with the bug chasing. I´m taking a couple of days off to relax a little cause I´ve been going insane. The next 2 weeks we will be working on the Bot. Just improving it a little, cleaning up the code.. and adding more sites to it. That´s it for today.

We have finnished fixing some little quircks and bugs, we also added a loading page to the adding process while the bot is picking up the info from the site.
We are very, very happy with how people have been using the new features. We are so happy to see you like them, and thanks to everybody that has sent Kudos and Congratulations.
We would like to say, Xtra Big Huge Thanks to all bug chasers that help us improve the service by pointing out things that don´t work. Specially Rob and Lisa who helped us fix some really nasty quircks that happened when migrating to the new version.
Well, everything seems to be working correctly now, we are currently rewriting the texts to reflect the new changes on the site. They will probably be up tomorrow. Anyhow this Upgrade took a long time since it was the foundation for a lot of future developments. Keep tuned we will be improving every feature of the service and adding more and more definitions files to the bot, and thanks all for your suggestions and ideas (specially Rob for making such a convincing case of adding priorities to Items).

We will be adding this information to the site explanations probably tomorrow, but since some users have asking for this here it is.

Tags Syntax:

• We take out some characters like '$', '?' and '*'.
• Some like '-', '_' and '&' get transformed into spaces.
• We don´t accept tags bigger than 3 words. 3 words is the maximum so far.
• Right now, we are not accepting Metatags for your tags ( like tags of form property:value like "author : Dostoievsky" or "starring = Marylin Monroe" ), If you add a Tag of this form will be splitted by the ':' or '=' and only the last part will be used. It´s true that the bot is adding some info in this form, and we will probably let you do this in the future, but we are still working on this.
• You can´t search by more than one tag right now. Don´t worry it´s coming really soon, but we want the DB to grow.
• We may have to strip the beggining of Tags from "The".. so maybe some of your tags will get changed in the future.

We will add all of this to the text explanations on the site, soon. Hope this helps in the meantime.

Some answers to other common questions:

The whole Suggested Sites part of shopping ideas needs to be improved. We will be fixing that soon.
The whole add Item manually thing and searching for a non direct link item needs to be improved. We will fix this soon.
There will be better search options for Tags and for Catalogs. (This will improve a lot. Don´t worry.)
We will be storing the images locally. We just have to upgrade the disk space on the server.
There will be better sorting options for your lists.

We have a full schedule of upgrades for the next couple of months, we will keep on improving the service. We are so happy of how the new version has been recieved, we are very glad you liked it.

We have finally moved version 3.2 to production, I´ll try to write a better post tomorrow with a better explanation of the changes and stuff... anyhow It´s 7am and I have to go to sleep so I´ll just add the basic changes here and write a better post tomorrow..

Changes in the new version:

• TTIWBot will fetch Item information for you, making it way easier to add items to your lists.
• Social Tagging, you can now tag your items for easy sorting and retrieval. And also see what people with similar interests as you have been storing on their lists.
• RSS feeds now work correcly. You can now have feeds for your lists, for your tags and also for all items added by all Users for a Tag.
• Nicer design on Lists.
• Added the ability of adding Notes to Items.
• Added the ability of adding Priority for Items.

The Site will be unavailable tomorrow (Tuesday 19) from 2am to 6am (EST) due to the upgrade to version 3.2 of the software that powers the site. We hope you like the new changes, happy wishing!
