as well as if you just want to stop following people who aren&#8217;t reciprocating so you can follow others (in case you reach your following cap).  The tool does give you the ability to deselect &#8220;verified&#8221; accounts so that you can make sure you still follow celebrities and major company accounts on twitter when doing bulk unfollowing which is a plus.</p><p>The <a title="Unfollow Twitter" href="http://www.dragonblogger.com/bulk-unfollow-twitter-users-with-justunfollow/" target="_blank">JustUnfollow</a> tool is simpler, and allows you to unfollow individual accounts more easily.  It also makes far fewer API calls because it only grabs the first X amount of accounts, and only processes more as you click &#8220;See More&#8221;.</p><p>I think the ManageTwitter.com tool is useful for doing bulk unfollows, but it will not stay in its current form for much longer due to violating the Twitter ToS.  I would suggest you make use of the tool quickly to cleanup your following list before you have to start manually unfollowing users one at a time again.</p><p>-Dragon Blogger</p><p><hr \> <a href="http://www.dragonblogger.com/bulk-unfollow-twitter-users-with-managetwitter/">Bulk Unfollow Twitter Users with ManageTwitter</a> is a post from: <a href="http://www.dragonblogger.com">Dragon Blogger Technology and Entertainment</a> Copyright 2009 <a href="http://www.justingermino.com">Justin Germino</a>.

The <a href="http://www.dragonblogger.com/bulk-unfollow-in-twitter-with-mutuality/">Huitter Mutuality</a> tool I used to use stopped working in recent months with the site completely going down so I was interested in a new tool to manage and cleanup who I was following on Twitter.</p><p>JustUnfollow is easy to use, you just hit the site and sign in with a Twitter Oath Token to see the list of people you are following who are not following you in return. You can very quickly and easily unfollow people and it unfollows them instantly.<br /> <a href="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/unfollow.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4943" title="unfollow" src="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/unfollow.png" alt="unfollow Bulk Unfollow Twitter Users with JustUnfollow" width="350" height="319" /></a></p><p>I tested and confirmed by doing 50 unfollows in less than 1 minute. I checked to see how many followers before I started using the service and directly compared right after using the service:</p><table align="center"><tbody><tr><td><a href="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/pre-unfollow.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4938" title="pre-unfollow" src="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/pre-unfollow.png" alt="pre unfollow Bulk Unfollow Twitter Users with JustUnfollow" width="211" height="234" /></a><a href="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Post-Unfollow.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-4939" title="Post Unfollow" src="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Post-Unfollow.png" alt="Post Unfollow Bulk Unfollow Twitter Users with JustUnfollow" width="201" height="210" /></a></td></tr></tbody></table><p>The service connects to Twitter incredibly fast and is one of the fastest tools I have ever used to unfollow users who were not following me. However, it has a few limitations and some of these are deliberate for the author wants to stay in compliance with Twitter ToS. Currently the tool requires that you manually click &#8220;unfollow&#8221; for each person that you want to unfollow and though it does the actual action very quickly this still is 50 clicks.</p><p>Secondly, there is a current limit of 50 unfollows in any 24 hour period and you reach this limit very rapidly if are trying to unfollow a massive amount of accounts, which displays a popup like this:<br /> <a href="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/unfollow-limit.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4944" title="unfollow limit" src="http://cdn.dragonblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/unfollow-limit.png" alt="unfollow limit Bulk Unfollow Twitter Users with JustUnfollow" width="528" height="121" /></a></p><h3><strong>In Summary:</strong></h3><p>Whether you have <a href="http://www.buytimewarnercable.com/internet.aspx" target="_blank">time warner internet</a> or dial up internet service, this is the best tool I have found to help you manage the users you are following on twitter so you can clean up your follow list. It is completely free and is very fast to run through and unfollow 50 users in a day and in a week you can trim your following by 350 users if you remember to do it 7 days in a row. The developer also informed me that they plan to increase the daily unfollow limit to 100 which would also allow you to unfollow 700 accounts per week which will make it even more useful and faster.</p><p>I think the tool could use a &#8220;check all&#8221; and just auto unfollow the first 50 or 100 people checked, but I think the manual &#8220;unfollow&#8221; is what is required to stay within Twitters Terms of Service as I stated earlier. So even though it is manual it still is very fast, and the account unfollows reflect on Twitter immediately. Twitter Karma used to take quite a while to reflect when you did unfollowing with that service.</p><p>I highly recommend Just Unfollow if you are looking to trim up your list of people who you are following, it is the best pseudo <a href="http://www.justunfollow.com">Twitter bulk unfollow tool</a> I have found.</p><p>-Dragon Blogger</p><div class="az_easel"><div class="item"><h2 style="padding:1em 0 .2em; margin:0;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Twitter-Book-Tim-OReilly/dp/0596802811%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJVGBIOLX3SLGYN2Q%26tag%3Ddragonblogger-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0596802811">The Twitter Book</a></h2><div class="byline">Paperback, Tim O&#039;Reilly, Sarah Milstein</div><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Twitter-Book-Tim-OReilly/dp/0596802811%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJVGBIOLX3SLGYN2Q%26tag%3Ddragonblogger-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0596802811"><img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41cXsQfwz0L._SL160_.jpg" class="book fl" alt="41cXsQfwz0L.

This tool has been proven to work even with accounts with more than ten thousand twitter followers, mutuality is more efficient and faster than any other Twitter application for bulk unfollowing users that I have found.</p><p>What it doesn&#8217;t do is bulk follow people who are following you, I wish it would do that as well, I am still trying to find the best application to accomplish this.
