#lazy if you change your username on twitter is the old username reserved from use by others? does it redirect to new username?

@fantasticlife not afaik to both
nevaliMo
@fantasticlife don't think so, I think it comes up for grabs but you could create another account very quickly (using another email addr)

@nevali @brendanquinn @blech not that i don't trust ya but just double checked. changed a username and registered with old one
Michael Smethurst
@nevali @brendanquinn @blech and no reservation / no redirects. that's all rather poor :-(
Michael Smethurst
@nevali @brendanquinn @blech tho weirdly usernames from deactivated accounts are reserved...
Michael Smethurst
@fantasticlife not that weird… deactivated accounts may well get reactivated
Mo
@nevali well yes. deactivated clearly not deleted. but i couldn't find the delete button :-)
Michael Smethurst

Mo
@nevali ah, the old facebook trick. you can never escape from this planet... pisses me off more than the url business
Michael Smethurst
