Get it together, Twitter

Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but c’mon Twitter. This is getting to be a bit much now, don’tcha think?

Mashable pointed out that Twitter is currently asking people not to change their usernames, passwords, or email addresses. Folks who do so may find themselves locked out of their accounts.

What a horrible behavior to reinforce. Don’t change your password – things might break! BE AFRAID OF TAKING A BEST-PRACTICE SECURITY MEASURE!!

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve had outage after outage, problems with malware, and now this?

I definitely don’t think the Internet is falling apart, but social media service providers really need to start focusing on security if they’re going to survive. If people don’t feel safe using your service, they won’t. And that’s not a good thing for anyone.
