Twitter C/D

I had ifttt throwing FB status updates to my gcal but then on my anniversary I wrote something like "celebrating a year of love.." and fucking ifttt put that status into my cal for every day between my first and second anniversary. So glad I was able to edit the date of the "event" and declutter the calendar. It did that with twitter - picked random dates using the time stamp etc.

that is kind of hilarious

TODAY:
Pick up dry-cleaning
Go grocery shopping
Celebrate a year of love

TOMORROW:
Deposit checks
Go to Cindy's party
Celebrate a year of love

ok so it looks like you can still use other channels to trigger new tweets, but you can't use tweets to trigger other channels or push tweets to other services. definitely less useful, some functionality remains but it's been cut down a lot.

i would say this is a pretty dumb move for twitter to pull but then again i'm not a jackass social media dev guru

i can understand them wanting to gain control of their eco system or w/e tf bs but why fuck w/lil doodads only nerds use, alienate the biggest complainers in the world for some imperceptible gain

dunno if this has been posted anywhere (and it's not 'about' twitter per se) but this is fairly wild/depressing/whatever else: http://www.nohomophobes.com/

about 90 people said faggot on twitter in the time between me clicking off that site's tab, typing the above post and pressing submit

who is the best ilxor to follow?

i need one of these, apparently, to nab an advertising internship. pissed a bit b/c i'm plenty familiar w/ everything twitter, just have absolutely no desire for a personal connection to it: i just don't do this shit. but it's a necessity... and as such, please follow me @kmattduffy

who is the best ilxor to follow?

@joeschoech obv

I've just realised I've never put my Twitter name on here

I'm @NickyD, follow me.

i'm @rmkf

this might be the thread to post this: http://www.resistradio.com/news/questioning-the-trollocaust-did-leotraynor-really-suffer-vile-hate-campaign

anyone been following this story? i took it at face value but have to now agree it does sound a bit fanciful.

I've not even heard of that story. But really, half of that exposé article doesn't prove a thing - the fact that someone uses twitter "unusually" isn't actually unusual. Nor is the fact that people make bad decisions or don't think things through. The police thing, well, it certainly used to be the case that police often didn't respond very proactively to stalking behaviour, but there have been changes to laws/protocols that make it more likely that they would respond, so I'll take that. Really the dude writing the article could've just put the thing about the IP address/home adress, because that is damning enough to place serious doubts about the veracity of Traynor's claim.

I have followed you, kelpolaris. I am also the best ILXor to follow in return, obviously. @sickmouthy.

As the comments suggest, the bogus "Oh you can trace an IP address to a single house" might just be a discreet smokescreen for the scenario where he recognises the IP address because his friend comments on his blog.

That is also true. Ah well. I shall go back to having no opinion on this thing I have never heard of before.

the fact that someone uses twitter "unusually" isn't actually unusual.

it is pretty unusual that he would repeatedly, as in more than once a day, keep following random accounts, when he was getting abusive messages.

the irish police wouldn't have a great reputation, especially with this kind of thing, but again, surely the extent of that sort of abuse would be enough for them to step in?

i mean, you'd have the fucking book thrown at you in court for what that stalker is alleged to have done, hence why wouldn't the police get involved? you'd surely be jailed, on a number of counts?

never had to post about the gardai as "localgarda" before

Price drop to US$36/yr (also US$5/mth), so I have ended up on app.net

well I never

@elmo_argonaut

it's me

i have set up on tent.io. if this thing flies I'll maybe set it up to peer with ilxor.com too

Oh no, 'peer' is a verb now (in the non-visual sense)?

such twitter pride when, after i followed kurt cobain quotes, kurt cobain quotes tweeted my bio info as a kurt cobain quote.

did twitter just break for anyone else? showing up as a page with a column of text down the left side, won't let me sign out

we're on other twitter

I'm on twooter

infiltrated by chinese hackers

i only post to weird twitter

just to go back to the story up thread lol you cannot "trace an IP" to someone's address. Internet do not work that way! if you took that IP to the ISP that supplied it with a warrant? they may then hand over user info. but it's not like fucking Hackers or CSI.

Yeah, he's definitely glossing over something there. Maybe he doxxed them

He was getting trolled off Twitter as well, though, in places where you can trace IP addresses. Then you could cross-match them with other non-troll incoming IP addresses, such as friendly communications from his friend, the troll's dad.

Does anyone know if the Twitter API lets clients use the new(ish) "search tweets of people you follow" function? It's the only reason to use the Twitter website, I think.
