Redirect Old Twitter Username References to New Username?

2 pointshackmyway2 comments

I had a twitter username say X. I renamed username to Y. I have lot of references of X on twitter/blogs because of mentions and replies. Is there a way I can redirect all those old twitter usernames to new twitter account?

Only if you email all those blogs. The old username is now free and can soon (not sure what the waiting period is) be registered by somebody else.

But what about replies, mentions of old username on twiiter? Is there a way to handle that.
