Tweets for beta testers

Beta testers - if you had trouble setting up Twitter you'll be glad to know we've resolved a problem there. Do let us know, as always, if it still doesn't work for you.

First updates in response to Beta

Beta testers - thanks for all your comments so far! We've still got a lot to work on, but here are a couple of changes we've made in response to your feedback.
  • Don't want to Tweet every time you watch something, but still want to let your friends know what's cool? Now you can Tweet automatically when you mark a programme as a favourite. (You'll need to be signed up to the Tank Top Beta programme to do that.)
  • A new menu on the programme's page lets you mark all episodes as seen with one click.
As ever, let us know if you have any problems or comments.

We've also had some comments that it's confusing that programmes you haven't said you're watching appear in your programme list, and we're dreaming up a way to make this much clearer. Might take a bit of work, but we will get there.

On a separate note, seems like we're getting a lot of site timeouts again - I'm thinking we'll have to try moving the site to a different server. Apologies if you've been affected.

Twoot?

Added a feature to tweet programmes you watch to our Beta programme.  Not sure I like it yet - needs some finer grain control about what you tweet and when.  Perhaps we need something that tweets you're watching a documentary on BBC4 whenever you watch "Supersize versus superskinny"?
