Friend Or Follow

This is actually another site I got from Sire a long time ago, but I couldn’t find it on his site, and I’d never written about it, so I am now.

It’s called Friend Or Follow. It’s a Twitter service that lets you see just who’s not following you that you’re following. At least that’s where it starts out. The first time I did this a few months ago, I found that I was following more than 120 people who weren’t following me back. There are some folks I expect not to be following me, but most of the rest, well, most of them had contacted me first, but then decided I wasn’t their cup of tea so they dropped me without my knowing it.

Now, I want to try to keep up with it more regular, and this is actually the third time I’ve gone back. Today, there were only 16 names on my list, 4 of those expected, one of those unexpected, but hey, that’s how it goes online, right? I don’t know these people personally, so if they leave, it’s okay because I drop a lot of people myself.

However, Friend or Follow has more information for you. For instance, the next tab over will let you see all the people who are following you at once, something the Twitter site doesn’t do for you. That can be kind of an ego boost, for sure.

After that, the final tab is where you can get some real information. The first choice is to see who’s following you that you’re also following. You can decide whether to just look at them randomly, or you can decide how it shows you the information, such as by username or location.

You also have options to see your Twitter growth on a chart, as well as the top 100 most followed users, and the top 100 “following” people, which means those who are following lots of folks. I’ll certainly never be on that first list, but if I got there virally, I wouldn’t mind being on the first one.

Anyway, it’s a pretty cool site if you want to see what’s going on with the social part of your Twitter account.

Man, I could have told you where it was. I only know because I had to look for it myself so that I could check what yobbos had dropped me lol

Never knew it did all those other things you mentioned. Had a quick look and I was surprised to see that I have some real honeys following me. Now, that is an ego booster ;)

Don’t let it swell your “heads” Sire; most of them are probably spam accounts. lol

Interesting fo sho! I’ll check into it! Some of my blogs I could care less who follows etc etc… some blogs I try to be very specific and use the twitter search tool to narrow down who I follow and who follows me…

I don’t care who’s following me so much, although I do appreciate them all, but it’s who I’m following and expecting to follow me back that I keep a check on, especially since I know that almost everyone follows me first.

Oh, another new add-on feature from Twitter? Well, I love to try out new stuff, and I’m going to test it right away, Mitch!

I don’t know that it’s from Twittern, Wil, but it’s about Twitter so that’s good enough.

Thanks for the Friend or follow. If it wasn’t for this post I may not have realized someone was unfollowing me because I asked him to quit dming me requesting RT’s. Then again- I would have noticed because my Dm box would be empty. lol

I probably check this one at least once a month, just to keep things real.
