Patrick Says: Why not Follow me on Twitter or Subscribe to this Blog's feed?

MyTweeple.com - Twitter Tool of the Day.

mytweeple.com - Manage Your Twitter Following and Followers

My Tweeple.com is a pretty nifty service, it basically pulls all your friends from twitter and lets you view those who follow you, those you follow, and mutual followers, and you can follow or unfollow right from the interface.

This is extremely useful, especially since Twitter has instigated the new follower limits.

I will say that I initially followed many people as robert scoble had suggested as a means to build my network, and it did work out hugely in my favor - for every 4 people I followed, 1 person would follow me.

So with 19000 people that I was following, I’ve gotten 5500 followers of my own, not too shabby in the least bit.

But alas the face of twitter and social networks in general are a changing. Of course I got upset at Twitter for making the changes, and I’ve been using twitter a lot less and experimenting with other sites such as Identi.ca, Rejaw, Tumblr, Plurk, etc…

However, with tools like monitter I don’t really need to follow everyone to get new followers and to build my personal brand or community, now I can focus on keeping my current network strong and building up my blog.

I’ve been using MyTweeple to unfollow those who aren’t following me. The most important people to me right now are the ones that listen to what I have to say, in essence they’re the ones paying the bills. My thoughts are why follow anyone who isn’t willing to reciprocate, and I already have enough followers that I can just unsubscribe to all the rest and focus on my little group, and build on that.

One thing I’d like to see on Mytweeple would be an option to just automatically unfollow anyone who isn’t following me, I’ve been clicking unfollow on link after link after link, or perhaps a checkbox next to each item on a page, and a select all link, and another button that says unfollow all, or something easier like that.

But overall I’m quite impressed, and think the service will do pretty well. I definitely recommend trying it out in order to organize your followers, and friends on twitter.
