So, I am obsessed with Twitter. I update what I am doing at the moment, it then shows up on Twitter, send it to Facebook, Friendfeed, Whrrl, etc... I am sure I annoy my Facebook friends with the constant status updates.
There are a ton of Twitter Apps out there to help you utilize Twitter in the best way possible. One of those is called TweetBeep.com.
Anyway, a Twitter friend of mine pointed out something weird... TweetBeep.com has uncovered a major Twitter Bug. Basically, if you want to read a users protected private Twitter posts, it is now possible with TweetBeep.com.
How to do this:
Use TweetBeep.com
When setting up a new alert, type the Twitter user name in the keyword box.
Uncheck the box "Search only text, not @reply name"
Now you can be a stalker and receive your friends/enemies private Twitter updates. Scary!
Oh, you can also follow me on Twitter - directions in the right column ;)
