A #newtwitter bug - special keys in the Page not found screen
Follow these instructions to reproduce this irritation of a bug:
- Listen to someone tell you their twitter username
- Be sure you are using the new twitter interface and are logged in (tested on 8 Oct 2010)
- For this example, go to http://twitter.com/noleen3talkiscool (I suspect this twitter account will never exist)
- You will get a “Sorry that page does not exist!” page with a user search box
- Start typing the name you believe should exist into this text input
- Make sure you type an n (or m)
What you should get is an irritating Tweet dialog window instead of the letter n. You can also try other letters: g or h. The ‘h’ takes you home.
