Just did it, despite the fact that i havent used the twitter in over a year. just to secure my email.

Its getting to the point you should probably just change your 'main' account passwords every month just to be on the safe side.

I had and was quiet active on it and had a decent amount of followers, but with time i completely lost interest in it.

Yup all you need to worry about is everything else about being on the web.
