So that was actually the wrong URL for the feature list,

This is the correct one and you can download the source code and run it on your own server and customize it.

I actually had 4 dates this week, and I have another 1 at 2 with a lady that supposedly has DD boobies. She’s a cougar, but who cares.

So that slowed me down a little.

I finally had time this morning

I just wish the folks behind Twitter would add some of the functionality of third party sites/apps so we wouldn’t need accounts on a dozen or so sites to get a full featured product.

This is not Twitter’s fault.

There are tons of services that have popped up, gotten a bunch of account credentials, and then sold. Twollow is just one more example.

Twitter users need to be more cautious about who they give their login credentials to. Just because someone launches a service that offers to do one little thing does not mean you should give them your details.

Instead, everyone is so quick to dole out their username and password to the “next free service”.

“This is a reminder that Twitter really needs a third party authentication system so that users don’t need to type their credentials into random sites to try out new services. Perhaps this debacle will give Twitter the push they need to deploy that feature.”

Why blame Twitter .

Poetic justice?

Email hawking generic Viagra or counterfeit watches is only slightly less interesting than “rubbing my sore feet” or “my ass feels funny.”

I fell asleep last night. I am now working on this making some coffee.

Glad to see somebody else made a service. Too bad it isn’t open source. I should be done soon.

Dates with hot women take precedence unfortunately to dumb techcrunch stuff.
