Chris Thomson replied on August 21, 2009 22:39 to the question "Unfollow Everyone" in Twitter:

There's no official way to do this, but there are several third-party tools that allow you to do this. Mutuality is one such service.

Keep in mind: third-party services aren't associated with Twitter, and if you're providing your Twitter credentials to them, they could do *anything* to your account, if they'd like. Be careful as to who you give your Twitter username & password to.

Chris Thomson replied on August 21, 2009 22:37 to the question "Any way to find out a e-mail on a twitter of mine?" in Twitter:

There's no way of finding out the email address associated with a Twitter account, unless you're already logged into it (under Settings). Since you don't remember your password, you can reset it through the resend password page. On that page, you can simply enter in your Twitter username into the textbox, and an email will be sent to whichever address is associated with the account.

Chris Thomson started following the idea "Create a Backtype Connect plugin for Intense Debate" in BackType.

Chris Thomson reported a problem in BackType on August 21, 2009 22:21:

I can't connect my OpenID with my BackType account.

Hmm, for some reason I can't merge my OpenID with my BackType account. Steps to re-produce:

- Visit http://backtype.com/login
- Fill in the OpenID field with your OpenID. I used 'chris24.ca.'
- Authenticate with your OpenID provider. I use myopenid.com as my provider.
- Click "I already have an account" (while on the clickpass page).
- Enter a valid BackType username & password.
- Receive "Couldn't connect to your account - please check username and password." error. (I've confirmed that my user & pass are correct by logging into the BackType site successfully with the same credentials)

P.S. Congrats on launching the new design. It looks great!

Chris Thomson replied on July 28, 2009 18:54 to the question "Twitter stalking" in Twitter:

Unfortunately there is no way to find out who is viewing your profile. If you're that worried about people 'stalking' you (not following, but viewing your profile), you might want to consider making your account private. (Settings > Protect my updates)

+1!

Chris Thomson shared an idea in Wakoopa on July 04, 2009 05:02:

We need more categories for our usage graphs, "Internet" is too broad...

The usage graph on my profile is probably about 80% filled with the "Internet" category. Is there any specific reason why the graph isn't this more specific, like "social networking", etc? :(

Chris Thomson replied on June 14, 2009 15:26 to the idea "Hide tweets with a given tag, like #squarespace" in atebits:

It'd also be nice if Tweetie supported filtering by regex, like Twitterrific for Mac does (although, Twitterrific does it through defaults write ...).
