There has been much talk amongst many online businesses and Internet gurus across the web about the possibility of the Twitter allowing celebrities the chance to have a Twitter Verified Profile. Now the wait is over, just yesterday Twitter released there new account verification system and Oprah, Shaq and many others have already gotten there accounts verified over night.
Twitter says that this new feature will help fight the ongoing problem with celebrity imposters on their site.
It is believed that these top celebrities may have been part of the driving force behind this change on twitter, both Oprah and Shaq boast over 1 Million followers, so they have to be some of the most influential users on the site.
Michael Phelps has not taken the plunge to get his account verified yet, but then he only has 8,000 followers , Ouch!
The decision to verify these high profile accounts on twitter, is to protect the good names of these celebrities and make it harder for people to “pose” as them on popular social sites. Facebook is soon to follow in twitters footsteps, as they are just about to change the profile naming convention as you may have already seen. This will allow them to put a hold on all the top celebrity names and then sell them off to the celebs!
