It’s kind of like “inbox zero”.

I guess Twitter feels it’s against its interests to allow their users to easily delete more than one tweet at a time. Rather than offer that functionality, they recommend creating a new account.

There are a few different apps/sites/services that help do what Twitter won’t. I, however, opted to run this Python script.

As if people need another reason to keep eyes affixed to their phone, Google now has a live view feature. I especially like the on screen safety message warning users to “…keep your phone down while you walk”.

I’m not sure how effective this sort of augmented reality display is if the phone isn’t held up. It seems like it might be even less safe to hold it at waist or chest level. Maybe it’s better to pull over when looking at your phone, even while walking.
