Nest Unclutterer is a neat site that will help your Twitter account from getting way too overloaded. Once you authorize it to access your account, the site offers to remove the Twitter feeds that are being followed by more than a certain number of people (the default is 750). The idea here is that no one but Twitter bots or large marketing machines could possibly follow that many users in a legitimate way. Further, it will automatically unfollow anyone that hasn't posted in more than 30 days. You can set a whitelist of exceptions for anyone on the list as well. After you click "Clean My Nest," you'll be presented with a list of users to block and unfollow. But then again, maybe you like having that many messages in your Twitter feed.

Lol, I feel like TG and Jane have all been hired to convince us that twitter is awesome and we should use it.
But it's like playing apple commercials at a Microsoft Developers Network convention.

Lol, exactly. Because moving out of grandma's basement is only likely to happen if you join twitter. "Failure to join twitter and other meaningless social networking sites can lead to social unawareness, frequent lapses in social judgment, and failure to successfully launch your own life outside of your childhood shelters."
Uhuh. :P

Twitter is stupid, stupid, stupid. TOMS has stooped to the fad of the day????? Maybe instead they should be educating people on how completely pointless this service is and how we should focus on more useful technologies instead. Yea, like I want to follow TOM's on twitter to get some pointless text messages - OK.
