very true about the top 10, I was actually scared to be in some but no, not yet. However it definately pushes me to stop following some that I followed only by "politeness".
My last tweet could be " "gone clearing up my following list" :-)
HollyJahangiri It's hard not to follow back out of politeness, isn't it? And I do, sometimes - I try to give people the benefit of the doubt - just as many did with me, before getting to know me well enough to know whether they wanted to unfollow or block me later.
is there a way to check if it really did action an Auto-follow (like last twitter auto-follow is "xxx" at 24/11/08 12:34) ? As I am pretty sure it's not working, I set-up a few keyword including "sharepoint" and it didn't auto-follow anyone, even though this keyword has been widely used for the past 48hours. thanks, great idea though.
