Twitter Change @’s And Oh The Irony..

So today Twitter have changed the way they handle @replies. From now on (until they undo the latest PR trick) you will not see any @replies tweeted by people you follow if the person they are tweeting to is not on your follow list. Make sense? So if I send @ev a message and you don’t follow @ev, you’ll not see the tweet. That means, no more #followfriday UPDATE: It means followfriday becomes more important as you’ll still as RT’s etc. (Thanks @stef)

Of course everyone on Twitter is hashtagging their thoughts with #fixreplies – but take a look below, this is from their jobs page, “If that sounds good to you, let’s talk 500 Internal Server Error” – time to fix it guys.
