As many of you know I handle tech support for our @Twitterrific account. A few months ago people discovered that you could use the app (via an API loophole?) to set your Twitter bio location to be extra extra long. You can’t do this w/ the official client evidently. 1/2
Ever since people discovered this, the act’s mentions are flooded w/ people, mostly from Asia asking how to set long bios & people replying to use Twitterrific. So now when I do support, it looks like this. Very little translates to revenue tho as they set & delete the app :-(
So to sum up: My job of doing tech support for Twitterrific is harder. None of this generates revenue to help sustain development. All these users who download the app just to set their long bio and then delete it use up precious Twitter user tokens from our limited pool :-(
