Now there comes a time when you may have a some Twitters that you follow that haven’t posted for ages, I don’t mean a week or two I mean maybe longer than a month, so how do you weed them out and unfollow them! Well, you use UnTweeps to cleanup your Twitter and remove those that haven’t posted recently.

UnTweeps

Using UnTweeps is simple and will unfollow stale twitter followers, just enter your Twitter details, or if like me you prefer not to enter your password you can use the Twitter Oauth system.

UnTweeps Main Page

Then you can simple select from the drop down menu how you would like to search for your non twitters, either 30, 60 or 90 days, then hit “List Stale Tweets” it’s that simple.

UnTweeps dropdown menu

Once you hit the button UnTweeps will search through your friends to find out who is “Stale” then it is up to you to select from the list who you would like to revove and who to keep.

So if you are not sure if someone is taking up your twitter friends, who hasn’t posted for ages then UnTweeps is certainly the thing to use, I do use it myself and find it a valuable Twitter Tool to keep my tweets fresh.

    A very interesting site, although I see you can only select from 30 days onwards. I do understand that 30 days is ok with some, but what if I wanted to check the last 15 days or so.

    Still very unique, thanks for sharing this with us :)

    It is a shame that it is a minimum of 30 days, if you use the premium service which is a crazy $1 a year, then you can choose between 0 to 999 days!

    @Karen – why would they even charge $1 for the year? That sounds weird and sort of dumb at the same time, just my opinion.

    It is a strange amount $1 for a year, I personally wouldn’t pay as the free option is good enough.

    I have no specifically used “UnTweeps” to unfollow people, I have used a few other tools. One warning I do have is that many of the Twitter friend removal tools out there are a scam. I am constantly testing Twitter tools and one thing I found that a lot of these friend removal tools will do is actually make you auto follow like 30 people.

    If you have had success with this one than I might have to give it a shot.

    I have had success with untweeps and so far it hasn’t followed anyone, so if you do give it a go let me know what you think ;)

    I have used other tools for this but I have not heard of this one yet. I will have to check it out, but I certainly will not pay for it. 1$ why even bother…

    This is interesting service, Karen! But why to pay $1 per year? We are already facing many financial load, especialy if you’re running your a self-hosted website with domain name!

    Viva Free Services :P

    Ok, the public has spoken. UnTweeps Premium features will be free within the next few days.
    You heard it here first.
    But I need some help getting more users (who click on ads :) ).
    I will issue refunds to those (few) who have paid already.
