Twitter has banned or severely limited most third party apps that used to allow auto twitter follow/unfollow. Google+ (Google Plus) has the potential to seriously undermine Twitter in my humble opinion but for now I think I will cross post on both Google+ and Twitter. Here is how you can trim down / remove all those Twitter spam bots you may have ended up following without having to click hundreds / thousands of times.
Update: Step 1 and 2 no longer necessary as ManageFlitter now has a Fast Select option
1. Use the Google Chrome Browser
2. Add the Chrome Extension - Check Them All
3. While already logged into Twitter - Goto this web Address - ManageFlitter - Click Start and authorize the app for your Twitter id
4. Click on the 'Unfollow' tab (up top) and 'Show All' (left border) - this will load the first 100 of the people you follow
5. Click the 'Check them All' button chrome extension - looks like a check mark (top right of your browser) - this will select all 100 people on the page - Uncheck those you wish to still follow
Note: the unfollow counter won't update to show you have selected all 100 users but once you click 'Unfollow x Selected' - all checked users will be unfollowed. (a message will confirm this)
6. Advance to the next page and continue / repeat as necessary (daily restriction = 1,000 unfollows)
Update: TwitCleaner is also worth a look as it analzes who you follow and bulk unfollows
To auto follow people who follow you, you can sign up for Socialoomph and tweak the config options to auto-follow
Easy as 1-2-3-ish

ReplyDeleteThanks so much this really helped! :)
ReplyDeleteThis script works well in Console... setInterval(function(){t=$(".following button:eq(0)");if(!t[0])window.scrollTo(0,$(document).height());else t.trigger("click")},100)
