You should add more services! I wrote http://handlehelp.com http://handlehelp.com which checks for username availability across multiple sites. It's open source[1], so you can use some of my checks if you'd like.

- trevorah 14y agoGood idea, thanks!
- citricsquid 14y agoRegarding the reddit check, a username can be unavailable for registration even if there is no profile, after an account is deleted the username is reserved forever. Not sure if there is any way to check if a username is actually available with out trying to register it. For example "citricsquid" is unavailable on reddit but your service reports it is available.
- trevorah 14y agoDamn, I only just added the reddit check. Looks like I might have to revert that...
