@mapperz Your logic: because using Esri product means they don’t share data doesn’t add up. Besides that, here in Ontario, many (all?) municipalities must license their data and that license restricts sharing. Yes, it’s be great if it was open. But it isn’t a software problem

This is the E$RI way, heavy discounted products for municipal/state/county governments with their software then put🔒 padlocks on tax payer - paid data. #freethedata

@ottawacity I’ll give this an A. In and out in 2 minutes. Small hiccup sitting on the page, and at 9 it didn’t reload. When I reloaded the site error’d. Came back about 15 seconds later. After that, it was all very smooth from doing the wish list and preloading the credit card. Well done!

Make a splash with a wide range of programs for the whole family! Registration for #OttCity's winter 2023 aquatic programs goes live at 9 pm. Reminder: Check out our new online registration platform and bookmark your preferred classes in advance! bit.ly/3Fhi3wH

@robroc Not a single line of Python pulling data was needed for that story 😀

Welp, my thread yesterday about the Queen's death during a Canadian citizenship ceremony, and how that changed the oath, made international news. London Times: bit.ly/3Rvswbb The Telegraph: bit.ly/3RMer98 National Post: bit.ly/3TXkqtL

@RobButler @ottawacity It’s seriously baffling how/why they haven’t implemented this. If the province could for covid, surely the city could slide this in front of their system for 2 hours, 4x a year

@ottawacity Solving your future IT issues #OttCity. Get a virtual queue. It's easier to get a COVID shot lols. twitter.com/RobButler/stat…

We're experiencing some technical issues with our website and some pages may not be available. Thank you for your patience, #OttCity.

@ccchenard @ottawacity It “works” (heavy on the air quotes of “working”). Sadly you need to refresh every second till you get lucky and the page loads.

@ottawacity That link doesn't work either...nice try though

We continue to experience technical issues with our website and some pages may not be available. If you are looking to register for our aquatics programs, please follow this link: apps102.ottawa.ca #OttCity

@0vereasy1 @ottawacity This won’t make you feel better, but I think I remember a city councillor email saying the upgrade wasn’t going to make it for 2022. Not sure if that excuses this fiasco for one more round yet?

Hey @ottawacity, i thought the servers were supposed to have been upgraded for swimming registration. Been getting constant error messages since 845. This is absolutely ridiculous. You should hang your heads in shame. Who upgraded the servers... ticketmaster? Arg.

@ottawacity After 35mins I got in. Registration system IS WORKING….keep smashing that refresh button friends.

@squidthunder Well done on the site. Works great on mobile

Some updates/changes to the Covid-19 Dashboard today. Changes are present in both the Desktop and mobile versions. experience.arcgis.com/experience/280…

@MapEnglish Calcite! Real work or learning? Or maybe learning is real work?

@williamscraigm Wow. I had look it up. KQ-V took 10 discs. Oh the memories. Almost forgot about that classic!

@MarcMethot3 @wallyandmethot Would guys in the dressing room see this noise? Do they use it as motivation?

@jasonscheirer I think you should just build your own. 1 key at a time. Cut all the keys you don’t need adafruit.com/product/4978

I often think about the half eaten Costco size bag of M&Ms that have been abandon at the office since March 2020.

@LastDaySurvival does s16 end today or next week?

@creeksidecomms @AndreaDesmart @ottawacity Horrible. I’m sorry. Leiper and Kavanagh look after the IT Sub committee. I sent them a note last time around and was told a new system was on its way. I hope more people engage them on the subject

Dip your toes into our many fall 2021 swim programs, there are options for the whole family! Registration begins tonight, August 16, at 9 pm. Browse our eGuides here: bit.ly/2VCsSFA Don't forget your family PIN and barcode to register: bit.ly/39gckop

@creeksidecomms @AndreaDesmart @ottawacity Yup. 9:21! I just angry tweeted the councillors right before, maybe that had something to do with it? But it’s possible it’s broke, or is possible it’s processing 1 person at a time. Without a tweet from the city there isn’t any way to know 😟

@AndreaDesmart @creeksidecomms @ottawacity That’s almost the worst part, no idea if it’s actually working or not! Of course the worst part is the entire experience. To note, last session it was 10:10 before I got in.

@creeksidecomms @ottawacity Agreed! You're not the only one still refreshing. I'm about to give up.

@girlreinhardt @ottawacity I just got my spot after 20 minutes of refreshing. Keep trying! Goodluck
