Re-Enable Deleted Twitter Username
Last December, I killed my @samharrelson Twitter account. It was a philosophical move (you can read it all here).
It was a tough call. I had over 5,000 followers and was a major early fan of Twitter (joined in mid 2006 and had something like 20,000 tweets).
I thought it was time, but I was wrong.
I’ve greatly regretted that move and have longed to have the @samharrelson name (and that account) back. So, I settled with @samBharrelson for a while, but that was… well, janky.
Randomly, I tried changing my username to the old @samharrelson handle in the Twitter settings one more time tonight.
Guess what? It worked…
That makes me happy.
Good to be @samharrelson again.
Yay.
