We use Twitter for sending text messages to cell phones. People can
sign up for a Twitter account and then turn on the settings to send
our tweets to their cell phone. Parents don't have to ever go back to
the Twitter log-in again once they are set up if they choose not to
post.
Unfortunately, this morning when I went to post our school closing,
the Twitter website said that there were too many people tweeting and
I had to come back later. It took about 20 minutes to finally get in.
This is the first time I've come across this problem though.

be sent to the community?

Ours worked. However, I get the messages on my work phone, which was
signed up a couple years ago, right away, but my new personal cell
phone doesn't get the messages until over an hour later. I've
noticed that the web site often seems out of date.

Are any of you using SnowCap and if so are you having issues with
it. Okoboji's SnowCap is not working and we are wondering if it is a
system wide issue.
