So if less than a day in you've already had your fill of Olympic updates and recaps, do yourself a favor and download F.A.T.'s browser blocking extension. Olwimpics is available for Chrome, Safari, and Firefox, and turns any reference or mention of the term 'Olympic' on a page into a colorful array of censor blocks.

There are parody accounts that will filter through specific topics and respond to unsuspecting users, like @THEUNlVERSE. There are still spam accounts using automated third-party applications too. As Twitter cracks down, the more sophisticated spambots find ways to avoid suspension. SEE ALSO: Want to Hear a Song?
