I was expecting it to happen soon but never thought it could happen so soon its like the 1995 Domain Rush for Twitter Usernames, I think a lot of nice Twitter usernames are already gone but i bet of a lot of nice ones are still left. To Trade Twitter username an aftermarket called Tweexchange has emerged where you are able to buy , sell and exchange twitter usernames.

TweExchange allows you to register with them using your Twitter Account and list the twitter usernames that you want to sell or exchange, and to prove you really own the twitter username you are trying to sell you are asked to login with that twitter username after that you can list price or something that you are willing to exchange it with.

But if you are still having trouble finding your dream Twitter username you can email email username@twitter.com and by using the below email template you can nicely ask them to give you that username as a new account or move your old twitter account to the new one.

• The username you want
• Your existing username, if you have one
• Whether you want to change your username, or start a new account with the username you’re requesting

But there are some restrictions. One is that the account must be inactive for the past 9months or if the owner has never updated his account twitter can email the owner about it but you can never be sure if you will be able to get it.
