bit.ly Blog: Overnight bit.ly Database maintenance

  • Apphacker · 4 months ago
    You guys are doing this too much too often. I don't know what the dealo is but I'm trying to get some work done here and it's like every other day you guys go down for maintenance. This is like Twitter 2008. Is this it for a while or should I just give up and use something else?

    Thanks.

    Not sure when the last maintenance was, but I've been very satisfied with the tools and availability for custom links, tracking, and whatnot.

    Thanks.

    Sorry I was tired and trying debug an issue with the iphone app I'm making for Bit.ly. I love the service and I didn't mean to come across angry.

    I just logged in no problems?

    My History is still blank though? Just says Loading... and never does. I can see any of my links, hit counts, etc.... ugh :-(

    I only get new links I bit.ly on the lower right hand corner Top Bits block.

    Is it just me or are others having this problem as well?

    Really? is that in your history section on the bit.ly page?

    Ok, so if your blocking Google Analytics kiss your history goodbye.

    Only the Top Bits info will populate when blocking Google Analytics.

    I had to unblock GA to get my history working.

    What do you consider as commercial use?
    I am a Realtor and would be wanting to send potential customers information or allow them to view data about homes and land. Would you consider that to be commercial use?

    The bit.ly sidebar quit working a few days ago, both in Safari and in Firefox. This was before I upgraded to Snow Leopard... but it's still broken after the upgrade, too. Any ideas?
