Twitter has gone back on that after listening to user feedback. I honestly think this 'App Ops' feature will also return, it was only found by sniffing about in the APKs and could only be activated (easily) by installing an app wh

del.icio.us was a "domain hack". He's talking about the fact it is hard to construct one with a .tk domain as there are so few English words that end with tk (if any?).
