Any good examples of "Social Sign In"? For the little web toys I make, I don't want to make full sign up forms, so I'm looking for any sites that are using Facebook / Twitter / Google / Yahoo / OpenID / etc for sign in. Something like what stack overflow is doing here: http://stackoverflow.com/users/login (only OpenID though).

Twitter question: Is there a tool which will let me see who the people I follow are themselves following, in aggregate? Of course, you can see who a given person follows, but so far as I know, you can only look at one account at a time. I'd like to see this information all grouped together in one place, and ideally sorted by popularity (i.e., with the sites followed by the most people toward the top). Thanks.

How do I sync a twitter account with a Facebook Fan Page?
Please note that I am not asking about Facebook Personal Profiles but the Facebook Pages that organizations have. I want to be able to update twitter by updating the Facebook Page Wall. I also want to be able to update the Facebook Page Wall by updating Twitter.
I have tried both the Twitter and Selective Twitter Applications for Facebook but neither of them work.

I recently fell in love with the concept of fake Twitter accounts, and I'm currently collecting them towards some sort of a project.
Can you recommend you favorite (if any) fakes on Twitter?

I can't seem to get into the whole Twitter experience. While I think I like the concept, after trying it several times I always seem to lose interest soon afterward. Is it just not for me, or are there some cool uses for it that I'm not aware of? What could I do with Twitter to make it worthwhile? What do you do? [more inside]

I run a moderately popular blog. I'd like to have the Twitter account associated with the URL, but it's suspended -- presumably because somebody used it for evil. I've contacted Twitter support several times, and they make motions like it's possible for me to claim this account but then they just close my ticket (marking it as "solved") with no explanation. I cannot figure out how to get actual support. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? How can I get Twitter support to actually support me and not mark an unsolved issue as "solved"? Am I simply at the mercy of the Twitter fates? Yes, I know Twitter is a free product and that I get what I pay for. Thanks.

A while ago, I set up a Twitter account that aggregates several RSS feeds using Twitterfeed (don't want to associate my MeFi account with it, hence the anonymous post). I never manually post to it. I just noticed that from June 1 to June 2, there's a string of about 20 tweets displaying as having been posted from the web, not from Twitterfeed. What gives?

I'm looking for two Twitter widgets to go on a Wordpress blog. The first will show pictures of Twitter followers. The second will show a feed of other people twittering in reference to either the main Twitter account and perhaps selected hashtags. I feel overwhelmed by the amount of widgets out there, and I don't know how to make the best choice. What recommendations does the hive have? I recently discovered the Friends Twitter widget, but it seems to have some bugs (it breaks the frame in Firefox on my Mac). Also, any best-practices or lessons learned?
