@Nurph's Up - 05/07/2013 - Recent Chat History

@Nurph said: Hey everyone.
@Eggdough said: @Nurph hey there.
@Nurph said: @Eggdough have you noticed that when you join an ongoing chat the Nurph Channel timeline is blank until a new message arrives?
@Eggdough said: @Nurph Yeh, I noticed that.
@Nurph said: @Eggdough That's because you were only seeing the chatter that occurred *after* you joined the Nurph Channel. 
@Eggdough said: @Nurph gotcha.
@Nurph said: @Eggdough well, that's history! RECENT CHAT HISTORY. Nurph Channels now load the recent chatter that occurs before you join an ongoing chat.
@Eggdough said: @Nurph Excellent!

What's new in Nurph?

#LitChat are chatting via their Nurph Channel:

#mediamadness are Nurphin' it up:

#MomBizMondays took Nurph for a spin on Monday. We hope to see them in the Nurph again soon :)

Unfortunately I didn't make a great first impression when I was introducing @DavidRozanksy to Nurph.com. But hopefully I'll get a second chance!

Also @GLHancock took the Nurph Channels for spin when participating in #blogchat, #writechat, and #SciFiChat. Thanks @GLHancock!

Bug Fixes:

  • Our tweet streaming stability has been upgraded again! Every so often the streams would drop, but we haven't seen any issues in quite some time now.

  • We fixed a very low-frequency bug whereby tweets would be published to the Nurph Channel but fail to be published to the Twitter hashtag...

  • A new, more scalable process has been created specifically for publishing your tweets as fast and as reliably as possible.

  • The up/down arrows weren't working properly when navigating between lines inside the message box. Thanks for spotting that one, @LitChat!

  • Several 'JavaScript' bug fixes have been added for Internet Explorer users. Well spotted @JulieBritt and @LitChat: https://twitter.com/JulieBritt/status/351804743317860352 We might need more IE users to test this, so please tweet @Nurph if you are using IE and you spot any issues with the Channels.

  • A bug in the new "Recent Chat History" feature has been fixed. The bug would intermittently show the 'recent messages' more than once in the timeline.

NEW FEATURES:

Until Next Time:

That's right, @Nurph HQ is based in London! The human team members have been enjoying the sunshine today.

Have a great weekend everyone.

@Nurph
