The Word Cloud

Hello all

Just to let you know that we've been in discussions with the CEO of the company which writes the software which powers the Cloud. We wanted to ensure that he is fully aware of the continuing bugs in the software - and that his company is properly on the case in fixing it.

They really, truly are aware of the problems and really, truly are on the case. The CEO's own background was as a senior developer at EIDOS (the conputer game company) and the new outfit has a very strong team of techies working on the issues. So, it IS frustrating, we're well aware, but everyone involved is doing all they can.

As is well known among Clouders, Internet Explorer is much more prone to clash with the Word Cloud than any other browser. You can download other browsers for free (eg: Firefox or Chrome) and you'll have very many fewer problems with those. Alternatively, if you can bear to live with the glitches for now, then life should improve ere too long. Needless to say, I personally feel privileged that all you lovely droplets make yourself at home among my billows.

Fluffy love

The Cloud

Yikes! We've got problems at the heart of the site. People trying to post their work in the Critiques section are having real problems. If you post just 2-3,000 words from Word and avoid any clever formatting, then it SHOULD work, but the site is being a bit glitchy.

Our best brains are on the case - we have a team of geeks in an underground cavern - we are planning to snatch Bill Gates and hold him hostage until the problem is resolved - but for now, big sorries and we'll fix the problem as soon as we can.
