Remove Follower Count?

Should Twitter remove it’s follower counts?

Clearly, this is a game — and really, gaining followers on Twitter, for most people, is a game. Which raises the question: Should Twitter just remove the follower counts?

I think the question is a bit silly. Some people think that is important. Should you hide that information from anyone that wants to see it?

Couldn’t you just decide to not view it? If it concerns you that much, you could just use a single line of JS via Greasemonkey to remove it from Twitter pages entirely. If you already have Greasemonkey installed, I have already written the script for you.

Enable Right Click

UPDATE: Do not keep this script enabled, only use it as needed. It could cause some issues while browsing, as it loops through every HTML element on the page.

Greasemonkey script to reenable right clicking on sites that disable it for “security” purposes:

EnableRightClick.user.js

Code:
// ==UserScript==
// @name           enable right click
// @namespace      http://forrestledbetter.com
// @description    enable right click
// ==/UserScript==

if (document.all)
{
	iElements = document.all.length;

	for (i = 0;i < iElements;i++)
	{
		document.all[i].setAttribute("oncontextmenu", "return true;");
	}
}
else
{
	iElements = document.getElementsByTagName('*').length;
	aElements = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
	for (i = 0;i < iElements;i++)
	{
		aElements[i].setAttribute("oncontextmenu", "return true;");
	}

}
