Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

It would be really interesting if Skritter users could have a profile page sharing some basic/other information to fellow users. Something like:

User name: Xuesheng22
Country: Australia
Studying Chinese for: 2 years
Other: I study Chinese for heritage reasons. I like be able to reconnect to my roots....etc.

*sharing some basic/other info WITH fellow users

I agree, that would be nice. And then also possibility to leave a short message to other users.

@xuefang yeah, that would be great too.

In the profile section, there could be a part where it says:

Studying Chinese since: 2007

or

Studying Chinese since: 2007 (on and off)


I get curious a lot when I browse through the Forum and wonder things like:"I wonder how long this person has been studying Chinese" and "I wonder where this person is from" ...etc.

This got discussed quite a lot before. I think the guys might have it in the development queue already

Yeah, we've got it in mind, although we're not working on it right now. I think it'll be awesome.
