Part of me thinks this was a conspiracy that was pre-planned and they just appeased Conan because of the contractual obligation to give him the spot.

It's actually stupid because it seemed to me, in the way SocialToo implemented it, that you could use it to stop spammers from using the unfollow+follow trick to keep popping up at the top of your profile page.

Yeah, Jesse has worked hard on SocialToo, which is why he has been vocal about Twitter doing stupidness with the API implementation and access....kinda like this.

Honestly, there are some *seriously* spammy tools out there built *specifically* for spam and Twitter ain't said nothin about those. I think SocialToo is just too high profile.

We talked about you getting the strong arm from Twitter
- Josh Haley
I've realized that's just part of writing for the Twitter platform. The biggest problem they've had (and I've mentioned over and over) is that they're very unclear what you can and can't do on the platform. That's improving, but any developer out there risks having their entire business model taken out from under them. It's very important to diversify because of that.

Yeah, that sucks how that worked out, man.
- Josh Haley
It wouldn't be the first time - I appreciate the support. I think I'm getting used to this.
