I know I can't hope to speak for all the unfollowee's but from one tweeter sitting on the pile of follow-chaff, I understand. Sorry for yammering on all day about cycling and hip hop Jason.

LOL! Seriously -- if what they are saying isn't helpful to you...unfollow. If they take offense (which really is *their* problem), you can just politely say that what they've been twittering about just isn't what you are working on right now. Gotta be ruthless with your time and attention, imho! Terri Z I’d think that if you keep following all of them, you are eventually not going to have time to do anything else! LOL!

I now use the search page and follow on subject instead on person! And by putting my username as one of the terms, I can see when anyone Replies or even mentions me.
