Twitter to shut down inactive accounts starting Dec 12 and free up usernames (Updated)

Haven't logged in to your Twitter account recently? Better do so before it's too late. — AFP

Update: Twitter is halting the mass culling of inactive accounts until it figures out a way to memorialise the accounts belonging to those who have passed on.

If you have not logged in to your Twitter account recently, you'd better do it at least once before Dec 11 or risk losing your account and your username forever.
