Brightkite will be back online today

October 8th, 2009

Dear all,

Firstly, we are sorry. We have never been down this long before, and never planned for this to happen now. We are working around the clock and around the world to bring Brightkite back, better than ever. We will put the service live again today.
Secondly, thanks for all your emotion. Hearing your best wishes, your anger and your frustration has been a moving experience for all of us. We miss you all dearly, and look forward to catching up very soon. The drinks are definitely going to be on us.

Yours,
The Brightkite team

    I just got my first SMS check-in confirmation, but brightkite.com is now stuck in a tree. I was able to load link to a check-in tweet notification and then navigate around, including logging in, but no index page.
