At least it is not like the kurtchner (sp) ads a while back that also moved but were out of sync The meercats just sit there, grinning like idiots. am i might have enlarged the txt so they don't fit on the screen

I was earlier getting an add for a lab supplier. Wonders if that had to do with Jeff... is he on to me?
But better than the bra adds I get on the browser at work...

Maybe you have been getting my ads? I have been looking for a microscope for ds me for christmas

:)
That would be even more worrying.

Meerkats? Have you guys wandered onto a pseudo-comparison website by accident?

The ads have been banished

I get Argos ads. I am that classy.

I see this thread is being watched ...

Of course. Jeffrey's been watching the threads for some time. He likes winding the Police up a lot as well. Must have run out of anime to watch.

I sure hope he's watching these threads.
considers giving him ex's email

Hey all, just to make sure everyone sees this: Justine has posted over here to say that we're taking down our app, effective immediately. I've pasted what she says below, but better to post app-y questions on the other thread, to keep all responses in one place.

Afternoon all,

In the wake of the recent hacking and DDoS attacks, we've been considering the security of the entry points to Mumsnet. Because the current Talk app uses http, rather than https we can't guarantee that it is 100% secure, so we've taken it offline.

We've been developing a new ios app using https for a while and we'll be launching it in a few weeks' time; obviously we'll let you know as soon as it's out. We hope to follow it up with an Android app in due course. In the meantime, though, we'd suggest app users move over to our mobile site. Sorry for the inconvenience; hope to see you on the new one very soon.

Thanks,
MNHQ

Yeah, I think he likes my new user name! Seeing as he tweeted it yesterday.

Hello,
Just got back from holiday and caught up with all the drama. Ive reset everything but cant log in on the app on my Ipad.

Well do I feel like an idiot! I so should have
RTFT!!!!

I blame my SIL.

'I blame my SIL.'

I blame my SIL.

And I'm Spartacus.

No I'm Spartacus.

I've just realised that I can't see the https at the top of the screen. Instead there's a globe or the Mumsnet logo and www.mumsnet.com.

I can see the https on other sites I use, so now I'm worried because it's not there.

I'm on my laptop using Safari.

Just make sure none of you is Jeff.

stop using my real name you thieves

Hygge, the https is only in the login page for MN.

Mnhq, maybe put up a sticky about it.

Hygge - https is only on the log in page.

How do you get meercats eh? (Sorry late to the party!) I have stupid plimsoles ad because of stupid sodding horrible uniform shopping I think.

Thank you, that's reassuring then.

Will those of us that have been testing the new app be able to continue using it? (Pleeeeeeeease? I love it so much!)
