I am beginning to think Twitter is hoping we all forget about the IM support we used to have. Yes, this is the same IM support that dissipated back in early April of this year.Before the re-design of Twitter there was a badge that gave us the false sense they were actually working to restore the service. Now that it is gone I have the feeling they are hoping we all forget about it.I myself ...

Last night I seen this tweet. I just actually wonder what @ev considers (Coming Soon) to be. In Twitter terms this could actually be, oh, lets say around 2010? I mean think about it. These are the people that still have the status message saying they are working hard on fixing IM features. What are your thoughts? Have you seen any secret screenshots?Don't get me wrong I am far from a Twitter hater but sheesh, ...

Now I am going to admit that at one time I was indeed a Myspace freak. I would find myself chatting with long lost friends and family throughout every day.The one complaint I had with their mail/message service is that when I was notified via email I had a new message I would have to physically go to my account log in then read the message. This seemed to me time consuming and redundant. I ...

It's easy just do two things. 1. Submit yourself doing the truffle Shuffle ...
