Include more than just Tweetdeck in "real user" criterion

I do agree with FakeFollowers that the ability to group one's twitter stream is crucial to making Twitter engagement real.

However, besides Tweetdeck, FakeFollowers also needs to include other popular Twitter clients that also group twitter users, such as:

Hootsuite
Seesmic
Brizzly

Hi Hootsuite,
Unfollowing is not the same as blocking. Does Hootsuite have the capability to block and how do we? Thanks.

Arik,

Just tested this over the past few days, and for me:

The "block" link seems to be working.

The "spam" link doesn't.

Thanks for your continuing work,

George

spam@topify.com isn't working

forwarding topify notifications to spam@topify.com isn't working for me -- days later I find I'm still following those tweeple.

Wow, I'm surprised by West Bank's response.

Every other bank I've come across (e.g. ING Direct, Bank of America, etc.) allows joint accounts.

I guess SmartyPig / West Bank is not a good solution for spouses or partners who want to save money together?

Any suggestions? Are there other savings accounts with an interest rate as high as SmartyPig?

wondering how TwitDir.com gets their data... since they're not officially affiliated with Twitter?

George Kao asked a question in Twitter on March 13, 2009 16:49:

how many users on twitter?

How many LinkedIn users: http://press.linkedin.com/faq
How many Facebook users: http://www.facebook.com/press/info.ph...

With Twitter's popularity, I'm surprised that the company doesn't publish any stats (that I could easily find) of how many users there are?

The only thing I could easily find is...
http://siteanalytics.compete.com/twit...
...but that's just unique visitors, not user accounts or active users.

Anyone else ever asked this same question?

George Kao asked a question in SlimTimer on March 13, 2009 00:34:

hourly pop up reminder web tool - any suggestions?

I really like SlimTimer.com and use it often. But I'm also trying to create a couple habits in my workday and it would be very helpful to have a web tool (that's cross-platform so I can recommend it to my clients) that can easily program a pop-up reminder every hour (or whatever interval) with a message that the user can customize.

Any recommendations? I've already googled "reminder utility" and "hourly reminder" and can't find anything easily for this...which surprises me given how many people would find this kind of tool useful.

Thank you,
George
