Ping.fm account linking slow/not working?

OAG · 10-14-2011, 09:47 PM

Has anyone else experienced issues with Ping.fms account linking in the past weeks?
I find it can take a minute or two to connect and more often than not it bombs out with could not authenticate.

I'm connecting to already established accounts & using password manager to stop any errors with account details. If I visit the accounts manually the sites still recognise me.

I've only started using it today but yes I'm having these exact same problems! MEGA SLOW!

It is still happening, and I went and googled for an answer and found that there are hundreds of complaints on and off the official ping.fm forum. I don't have a solution to it either. I just get "Could not authenticate your ___________ information" for EVERY service. And here I thought I'd found an alternative to posterous that still had connections on the back end to receive data from other services (like hootsuite). Oops, so much for that theory.

Anyone else get some victory with another service? Please advise.
