unfolloweveryone

A couple days ago I released a little Twitter app with Daniel ( @TechWraith | ThisIsNot.us ). Today I’m sharing it with you on my blog. It’s already been blogged about on TheNextWeb by @alex, but I thought I’d let my readers know about it in case they missed my twitter stream.

UnfollowEveryone.com is a simple Twitter web app that will let you unfollow everyone on your Twitter account. We all do it, add this user, that user, oh and this guy is funny I’ll add him. Eventually you end up following 100, 500, 1000 or more people and you just can’t keep up with all of that. Instead of going one by one through your account and removing everyone our app will do it for you.

In the next version we will let you save certain people before removing everyone so you don’t have to remember all your favorite follows. If you want to add something let me know and we might put it on the to do list. If you find a bug let me know right here in the comments.

Good luck and happy unfollowing!

I also want to give a big shout out and thank you to DrBaher for most of the backend Twitter API work!

This is pretty nice.

But is it really a good idea to create entire webapps for what should really be base features of a service?

For sure. The reason being: so that the developers of Twitter see how popular this service is and then incorporate that into the actual app. If not, how would they ever know? The app store for iTunes+iPhone(iPod) came out because of all the people cracking them and installing homebrew. Twitter incorporated @replies and trending topics from the same method as well.
