The 10 golden rules of Twitter | Times Opinion on Tumblr. The Great Twitter Unfollow Experiment of 2011. This week, I unfollowed everyone on Twitter. That was over 131,000 people. I didn’t do it manually, but rather, with some help (ask @jesse, if you need custom help like that). My reason was that I’d started receiving over 200 direct message spams a day.

People new to the Twitterverse can’t help it if they make a few social gaffes now and then.
