Not so fast, storage quota

A user recently reported to us that they felt their quota was being used too quickly.  We investigated and – lo and behold – it was true.

We had a problem with how the quota usage was calculated, which caused pages saved multiple times to be counted multiple times instead of just once.  This has been fixed now.  So, everyone should have more room to organize their saved pages.

As you can see we really do listen to your feedback!  Please let us know if you see anything you don’t like or if something seems wrong.

Do you speak □□□□□?

One of our users pointed out to us that when he saved a page with traditional Chinese characters in his notes, when he retrieved the page, he got back Mojibake inside the notes instead of comprehensible notes because the characters got turned into garbage like □□□□.

We had recently switched to a new library on our servers which assumed a latin 1 character set instead of UTF-8.  After some remedial language lessons, our system is back to speaking the languages of the world.  If you happen to find someplace where it isn’t working though, please let us know so we can send the system back to a refresher course 😉

scrible Launches!

We launched into public beta this morning!  Simultaneously, we announced that the National Science Foundation has awarded scrible with a $500,000 SBIR Phase II Grant.
We’ve been blessed to have our big news day covered by three titans of the startup and technology blogosphere: Robert Scoble, VentureBeat and TechCrunch.  Check out their posts below.  Robert’s post contains a ~10 minutes interview of our Co-Founder Vic and a demo of scrible.  How fun!
