Introducing TwitterClear

Vibol — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 00:16:37 +0000

Have you ever wanted to clear all your tweets without deleting your account and losing all your follows and followers? It’s a bit cumbersome for people that have massive tweet histories, but you can use TwitterClear to remove all your tweets. TwitterClear will remove up to 100 messages per hour, a restriction that Twitter has on their API. This restriction may be lifted if Twitter sees an obvious use for TwitterClear, but I haven’t thought to contact them yet since my own tweet history was only about 200 entries.

A Zenfolio Wordpress Plugin

I came across Derek Powazek’s superbly simplistic DePo Clean theme a couple days ago and finally got around to installing it. It needs the flickrRSS plugin to run. I do not use flickr for my photo storage–Zenfolio was my prime choice after reviewing a variety of services. Unfortunately, flickrRSS does not work with Zenfolio. I could not find an alternative so I used Dave Kellam’s flickrRSS as a model to create a plugin called ZenfolioRSS. You can see the results above.

Update [11/5/2007]: I’ve placed a download link for the plugin below. You should use the flickrRSS CSS styles to customize the look, making this a drop-in replacement for flickrRSS. To install, place the zenfoliorss.php file in the wp-content/plugins folder. You need to enable the plugin through the Plugins interface in the WordPress admin site and then configure the plugin by going to Options > ZenfolioRSS-the main option you need to include is the base URL to your Zenfolio site (e.g. http://vibolhou.com). In your theme, add “” without the quotes where you want to see the pictures. If you’re replacing flickrRSS, replace the “get_flickrRSS()” text with “get_ZenfolioRSS()” in your code.
