Twitter’s New Who To Follow Suggestion [Picture]

Last night my Twitter account was given a new functionality called “Who to Follow” suggestion box. Basically it displays two images of suggested people to follow, with a link to see their profile or to follow them directly from your page.

So far the suggestions seem to be random, so they are less than helpful. If Twitter where to apply some logic and algorithm to this feature, I could see it as being very useful. Attached is a screen shot of the new feature.

Twitter to Pull the Plug on Manage Twitter

“We’re writing to let you know that your application, ManageTwitter, breaks our Automation Rules and Best Practices (http://help.twitter.com/entries/76915). Specifically, it facilitates bulk automated user unfollowing, which is not allowed. It’s best for both our users and your users if your application follows the rules, so please make the necessary changes, such as removing the “Select All” option (and requiring users to decide on each user individually) to bring your application into compliance.”

This Sucks!
