1. Scenario: Attack account, change username, create new account, squat username & abuse. I need to use a stronger password on twitter.

2. Twitter seems to fatal error on new passwords with spaces, then logs you out. Logged back in using the new password with spaces. Confused.

3. Oops, I polluted @electricfork’s facebook status. I assumed all those apps used RSS or API calls, not page scrapes. clicks ‘like’ in fb

4. Note only 14605171 is the real @grantstavely. All others are impostors. Philip K Dick you are missed. Fast flux-able?

5. Scenario: Attack account, change username, create new account, squat attacked username, grief. I need to use a stronger password on twitter.

6. .@shrdlu usernames are not static. I’ll let you use mine if I can use yours. wink twitter.com/urls change and everything.

7. I never kept handles long, and used them for fpss, not hacking. ph8 was my favorite, then hobart. writequit was just the last one I used.

8. OK @electricfork, I’m going to switch to @writequit again, then you switch to @electricfork, then I’ll be @grantstavely again. 1,2,3,go

9. Squatting @electricfork’s handle, griefing his followers with nasty dms, as usually #whyitweet #fixreplies

10. I just crossed streams with @electricfork, er, I mean, @grantstavely. Who ever heard of usernames not being primary keys?

11. Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

12. @oneeyedcarmen he can’t hanlde advice without being insulted? http://is.gd/zT5s immediate and direct feedback is always easier to take

13. .@aaronbarnett if there were windows in my office, I’d have jumped out already. #google

14. @sxs3200 that’s not effective seasoning, you’ll need to host a BBQ to protect that investment effectively.
