Twitter – Deleting Direct Messages
This morning, I went on a simple quest, “Delete the some thousand plus Direct Messages I have on Twitter”. There’s no rhyme or reason as to why I wanted them gone, just felt like there was something I needed to clear up on Twitter whenever I looked at my account… and now I have.
After some searching on Google, I came across a Bookmarklet for deleting Twitter Direct Messages on DCortesi.com, a blog by Damon Cortesi.

For information on the Bookmarklet, check out DCortesi’s post here. I highly recommend clicking around a bit through Damon’s blog. Every programmer that’s ever had a question about manipulating things they use or find will associated with DCortesi immediately, “I wonder if X and Y play nice together, and if I can do it like this…”
It’s inspiring to see awesome stuff come from sheer curiosity and drive to do groovy stuff with it. 5 stars for Damon on this one.
