Founders day fail :-(

Some days things  just don’t go your way do they? So far today has been one of those days.

Inbox frenzy

If you are a user of Skowt you will be aware that we had a bit of a gremlin in our messaging system last night. This meant some users received random emails from Skowt at around 10pm on Monday. Let me apologies again for any inconvenience caused by this – this issue has now been fixed so shouldn’t happen again.

Email shower email (Should have used Bcc)

I can’t blame system gremlins for sending out an email to a group of users using the To field rather than the Bcc field. I take full responsibility for sending this email and apologise to those users for exposing their email addresses to other Skowt users. A simple case of human error I’m afraid.

On a lighter note

There are loads of great things happening in UK Scouting at the moment with the Scout Association’s Put a scarf on it campaign going great guns today!

Don’t forget to use the #iScout hashtag on twitter!

Also there are great events filling up fast such as Dragnet and Apex Challange! The adventure continues….I know I’m excited about my Scouting year ahead.

Happy Founders Day

Rob (still a bit embarrassed about the email sent this morning – doh!)

We’re Live!

Skowt is live!

Today marks the start of an exciting new journey for Scouting and Guiding on the web.

We created Skowt just for Scouting and Guiding and we’re really excited about helping you and your members to communicate in new ways online.

We are passionate about creating a safe place where you can benefit from cool features that save you both time and money.  We will be adding plenty of upgrades and extra features so please let us know what you think about Skowt and help is to make it the place you want it to be.

Skowt is a new, innovative and safe site and as such we will be working around the clock to respond to your needs and make sure that the first few weeks and months run as smoothly as possible. However please bear with us as we iron out any teething problems – we are on hand to fix issues and help you where needed.

We love to hear from people so please give us as much feedback as you can as this will help us make Skowt even better!

Happy Skowting!
