Twitter

Codegeeks.net domain expired.... - Mark Stang

I'm a bit confused about how they can sell blocks of 1000 followers who also just happen to be interested in your topic. The whole concept of buying and selling followers seems so silly and contradictory to the purpose of Twitter altogether. - LuluGirl896 via BuddyFeed

Mainly on startup or when adding someone to a group. - Jonathan Greene via iPhone

I had issues from day #1. I'm looking forward to the update too. - Vaughn via IM

freaking awesome. - Morgan Collins via BuddyFeed

"See bio text, following & follower count, and most recent Tweet for all friends and followers on the Twitter follow or friends list" - Willem via Bookmarklet

I wish we had this for Chrome :( - Gil Francisco III

please update the Twitter Bios at a Glance script. I put up a new version to go along with Twitter's update this past week. http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Al

Twitter a enfin activé les Hashtags sur son site. Ce qui veut dire que vous pouvez maintenant les utiliser comme des hyperliens. En cliquant sur un Hashtags, vous démarrerez une nouvelle recherche sur Twitter Search. - lelapin via Bookmarklet

"Hashtags are dying. In mid-2009 it’s getting difficult to see a point for them. What started as a helpful tool for tracking news from events has descended into a combination of misguided overuse and outright spammy manipulation." - Martin Bryant via Bookmarklet

The internet is one of the most naturally evolving civilizations even though based on algorithms due to ease of access. Resistance is not futile but the outcome is almost predestined. The growth of the internet has been with non tech people who not only want an easy button but one that pushes itself. - Stephan Miller via fftogo

I wish twitter, friendfeed, facebook and google come up with a feature to send audio tweets, soo that this technology benefits non-english and illiterate people around the world. - gtp19

Have you tried combining blip.fm and ping.fm with something like digsby ... may work. - Simon Hamer

Een zoekopdracht naar Twitter bij Google Trends. Nederlands de derde taal. Nederland het eerste niet-Engelstalige land. Het dunbevolkte Groningen de eerste regio binnen Nederland. - Peter

Dat laatste komt volgens mij doordat @erwblo regelmatig elders in 't land verblijft. ;-) - Ton Zijp

Grappig verschijnsel overigens dat niemand dit bericht een like geeft hier. ;-) - Ton Zijp

I really wish all of these Tech blogs would think before writing. The Twitter "followers/following" UI changes are a total FAIL, & definitely don't make it any easier to connect, in fact other than showing the last tweet per user, it's several huge steps backwards: As I wrote below, "They took away showing a follower's bio on hovering over their username...Showing the last tweet in... more... - Alex Schleber

when somethign is absolutely 'unmanageable' a bit of a move in that direction is worthy to be something 'manageable' enough. This still takes a lot of time but at least gives an impression that Twitter is heading on in some sort direction to make things better. - Sardar Mohkim Khan

I like the expanded version, but when you look at who you are following now it doesn't show direct message anymore so you cannot tell if they are following you back or not...does it? Oh great, thanks for the info Garin! Libby - Libby Baker Sweiger

Expanded version is better I agree but you can see more people from list view. If you click the gear icon you can see if someone is connected to you by whether or not you are able to send a direct message. - .Garin Kilpatrick.

You are welcome! - .Garin Kilpatrick.

"An interesting article in MediaPost describes both marketers and Twitter users noticing an increase in pr0n-related spam, and they are not liking it. The issue makes us wonder: should Twitter stamp out pornography; and how should they go about it?" - LANjackal via Bookmarklet

pisses me off too... - Rob Sellen :o)

Personally I think Twitter should crack down on spam in general, and not focus specifically on porn. There are a lot of legit accounts out there by actual pornstars who use them to stay in touch with fans. Porn's also very easy to avoid: don't follow accounts that have it, duh. Besides, the service doesn't support media natively, so all you're seeing is links anyway. Relax. - LANjackal

How am I updating from my friend feed? I dunno, check this out and you should be led to the direction of Yet Another wonderful app - duckdaotsu

This just inspired a blog post -- THANKS! - William McCamment

"Is Twitter suddenly in a dangerous place, risking alienating users by becoming far too corporate, while failing to make any cash from those feeding off it? Three incidents in 24 hours have provoked that question." - Martin Bryant via Bookmarklet

Valid points, but most of this can be avoided by simple common sense: 1) Don't follow anyone unless you're absolutely interested in them. I know this violates the unwritten follow reciprocation rule on Twitter, but I'd rather my Twitter home page have stuff I actually care about than be full of noise 2) Trending is a "spammy" concept. Use real-time search if you really wanna see what people are saying about something that *you* are particularly interested in. Most trends are inconsequential crap. - LANjackal
