Mosey Along Now!
Twitter Changes Look of Suspended Accounts Page
I just noticed that Twitter has changed the look of the “Suspended Accounts Page”, did you see it?
I think it’s pretty neat how they “Cross Out” the Twitter Bird in the graphic, but it kind of gives me the feeling that they are giving the axe to the Twitter Logo. Or maybe it’s just a simple warning?
There is still a dilemma about the “Suspended Accounts” problem (at least in my book), here’s what I mean.
Twitter recognizes suspicious activity from any given user, so in their discretion they suspend the account, until a resolution is met. Which I feel is a good idea, but is it?
When we get the follower notice in our email, that a new follower has been added, and we click on the link to view the new followers page, we then are redirected to the “Mosey Along Now” page.
If the account has been suspended, does Twitter automatically delete that user from our follower list, or do we have to track that user down and remove or block them ourselves?
If not, how can we resolve this problem? There may be an obvious solution, that I am unaware of, and maybe you can help.
I’d love to hear your comments (or advise) on the matter at hand.

Look Who’s playing TAG with Twitter, it’s Facebook
Look Who’s playing TAG with Twitter, it’s Facebook
Want to play “Tag Your It?”
Well, in a recent article posted September 14th, 2009, and hot off the press, PCWorld’s Tony Bradley stated that:
Facebook has just introduced the latest feature in its ongoing evolution to blur the lines between social networking and search engine- tags. The new ‘@’ tags allow users to tag other users in posts and integrates a whole new realm of search capabilities.
In the article Tony mentions that they borrowed it from Twitter. But I think it may be just a ploy to make it more like their rivals and to try and get a jump on Twitter search capabilities.
Tony goes on to say that the use of the “@” tag will allow Facebook users to place the tag before another users name, so when other users click on the user tag they can see all the posts of the other user as well.
Now this may be a good thing for Facebook, but I wonder what Twitter has to say about the matter.
Also, I don’t know if I would want to see all the posts from another user on Facebook or not. Oh well, I’d like to know your take on the matter. So please post your comments below.

Microsoft Excel gone Twitter!
Hmm, Microsoft Excel gone Twitter
I just stumbled upon a really ingenious little website called Twixcel.com that was developed by
Alec Berg.
According to Alec Berg,
Twixcel is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that automates your twitter experience, by using Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and VBA (Visual Basic Programming)
You can download this little program Twixcel.com while it’s still in beta and tinker around with it at your leisure.
This program doesn’t have a lot of features, but from what Alec has mentioned on his website he plans on quite a few revisions in the coming months that will make it more user friendly as well as increasing its flexibility.
So, for those of you who don’t want to spend all your time online, this downloadable program will sure be the cat’s meow. Don’t forget to watch the videos that he has on the website. They are quite informative.
Oh, one more thing, if you’re not familiar with Excel or any other spreadsheet program for that matter I would venture to say, this is not for you. But those who are of the “Geek Elite” this may be right up your alley.
