Trent Reznor has officially left the social networking world and has deleted his Twitter.

If you visit what used to be the Nine Inch Nails frontman's page, you now get an error message from Twitter telling you the page no longer exists.

Whatever, he probably has a new account under another name somewhere.

Reznor announced he was quitting Twitter last month because "idiots" from the Metal Sludge website were on Twitter and it was making him sick. He was back on Twitter before the month was up.

Reznor embraced social media and networking tools as a way to promote Nine Inch Nails' music without a record label. Reznor split with Interscope after the release of 2007's Year Zero.
