What is a user ID?

A user ID is the number Twitter assigns to a profile. Instead of using your name or email address to identify you, we assign you a user ID instead. This way, you can change any of your personal information and we still know who you are. Twitter does all kinds of things behind the scenes with user IDs, such as relaying statuses, formatting rss feeds, and putting your contacts in order. You're not required to know your user ID most of the time, but some third party applications may require it.

How do I find my user ID?

Your user ID can be found in several ways:

• Click the rss icon in the right end of your browser to show your feed address in a feed reader , and note the number at the end of the rss feed
• Hover over the rss button on your home, profile, or replies page to show the feed address at the bottom of your browser; your user ID is the number before ".rss"
• Click the rss box at the bottom of your home, profile, or replies page and look for the number at the end of the URL that pops up in your browser; it's the number before ".rss"

If you have the rss feed address of any Twitter page, you can always find the user ID, since it is always the number at the end of the link, just before the ".rss" suffix.
For example, in this rss feed: http://twitter.com/jagdeepnegi the user ID is the number at the end, 15.
