Hi. I'm going to go through all my pings (and probably this whole chat), but I deleted all the broken tweets (I think). Let me know if there was anything that I missed.

@Gallifreyan I haven't touched anything.

(Though I might need to force a moratorium on Control Room star tweets until everything gets sorted out)

@Mithrandir Thanks. I tried some of those, but I also want to avoid underscores if I can; sometimes that can make an account name look weird or less official

@Hamlet Okay. I'll see what I can do. Has anyone figured out how to do that? (@Gallifreyan?)

@Randal'Thor Great idea! @mi_yodeya does that all the time, and that was part of my plan for this account as well.

@Shokhet go to the settings page of the feed

uncheck title and check post body

@Hamlet Okay. Will try that.

Thanks :)

@Feeds This was, in case you were wondering, actually AJ-Hall-the-author's account, best as I could tell. We should be able to get some publicity if he likes and/or retweets.

@Shokhet Done. Hope that works

@Randal'Thor It's a tracker: meta.stackexchange.com/q/142423/266359

@Feeds These are the people who wrote the article I cited in literature.stackexchange.com/a/2105/481. I searched their site, didn't find anything for that question, decided there was nothing to lose by tweeting

@Shokhet hrm, should I bug a CM about this...?

@Mithrandir If you think it's appropriate. I left a comment on hairboat's answer on MSE with a link to the request.

@Shokhet I'll do an informal ping later. None of them are online now, and it's time for shul in a couple minutes.

@Mithrandir All right. Thanks :-)

@Literature_SE?

@Randal'Thor @Mithrandir @Shokhet and everyone else - links still work when they look like https://literature.stackexchange.com/q/1966. Everything else can be omitted.

Also congratulations on getting it to work! (Assuming @Shokhet fixed the post title and body in Dlvrit)

(poor Shokhet with so many pings! :P)

I guess I can disable my own Twitter feed now.

Maybe we can also get this feed to the reading room? (@Mithrandir)

@Mithrandir Thanks ;)

@Shokhet *she

@Randal'Thor Oops. Thanks

One of the accounts I found was Andrew Hall, but whatever

@Gallifreyan Wait. Is that for dlvr.it, or for Twitter? ...we said before, Twitter doesn't care how long your link is, it's automatically worth 23 characters. If it's for dlvr.it, then I think we can use all 140 characters now because of my tweak.

@Shokhet Dunno. Maybe it was because I had it set wrong in my Dlvit. Doesn't matter now you have it fixed :)

@Gallifreyan K great :)

Anyone else have ideas? I'm open to suggestions. cc @Hamlet

@Shokhet Forgot to mention: it's also the letters "Lit" in a Stack Exchange speech bubble.

@Shokhet did anyone get a response from a CM about the logo

I can go bug one

Also, 2 ideas for improvements

@Hamlet I think @Mithrandir pinged JNat in one chat room or another.

Thanks

@Hamlet ...?

(1) is there any way to get stats on who is clicking our links on twitter?

@Hamlet Yes. There's something in Twitter (how many, not who), and there's probably something with dlvr.it (if we use their link shortener in the automated tweets).

(2) is there any way to get a RSS feed of who replies to our account/who follows our account?

Maybe try asking on webapps.se?

@Hamlet I don't know. What do you want to do with that?

I could tell IFTTT to follow back all followers automatically if that's what you want. Was there something else?

@Shokhet so we can port the feed into the chat room and see who follows us

@Hamlet Okay. I'll see what I can do.

@Shokhet also, you're doing a really good job with this, really appreciate it!

@Hamlet Thanks :)

@Hamlet I don't think we need that in chat, necessarily....

IFTTT doesn't have a way to make that into RSS

But I'm telling it to follow back our followers now

Hrm. Doesn't look like they do that. Maybe one of the other services we used does.

@Mithrandir According to Twitter, it's Michael Northrop's birthday in two days. I'm scheduling a happy birthday tweet from @StackLiterature. I'd also like to add a link to all our questions under his name, but at the moment we only have the one. Do you have any others that you could ask in the next day or so? (I don't believe I've ever read one of his books)

Oh! I didn't see that you'd already suggested it :P

@Mithrandir Good thought. It's been taken.
