Cool Tool to Add, Subtract Followers

Once in awhile, it’s difficult not to get a little tired with who you’re following on Twitter – call it Follow Fatigue

People who you thought were interesting are, instead, telling you about their latest Starbucks experience, or recounting yet another isn’t-my-child-just-so-cute story.

So with Spring just around the corner, now is probably a good time to freshen up your Twitter world by turfing some followers, and adding new ones.

There are lots of ways to do it but one service worth checking out is TwitIn, which strikes a chord because it has a user-friendly interface and some simple, yet effective, ways to manage your Twitter account.

After providing your username (no password required), TwitIn provides three options: Flush (unfollow people who aren’t following you), Grow (add followers) and Reciprocate (add followers who are following you). It also provides a box that lets you add specific people who are most likely to follow you back.

When you click on Flush, for example, a group of followers appears. By clicking on a tab box, they can be quickly un-followed. The same goes for Grow and Reciprocate. You do have provide your Twitter password to use Flush, Grow and Reciprocate so anyone worried about security should think twice before proceeding.

All in all, TwitIn is an easy to use and useful tool to manage who you follow and unfollow on Twitter.
