Twitter Me Fun
Well I had a fun idea, and whipped this idea into an actual thing. Basically it’s like a friend builder of sorts for Twitter. You follow the people in the list, and then it adds you to the list. Eventually a bazillion people will have a bazillion people in their list. If you have any comments or tell people about it, please link them to this post as I may change the URL to the script.

I realized that having it on a blog post, not a page, made it get hidden quite quick in my archives. Sorry about any confusion or broken links, but really it’s still here so not huge deal k?
Hey Tim,
Awesome app. This is a really cool idea. It will be interesting to see how it affects my Twitter account.

I have worked with Ad words with some luck, but I have not been at the top of the first page. Is there a trick?
Would you recommend using youTube to promote a website?
Thank you
Thanks for the Direction.
Love everything about Twitter. Has proved to be a real Profitable Investment of TIME

Hi Tim,
I have been searching for something like this because
I can’t make it myself.
LOVE IT!!! And so easy to use.
Christine
Very cool Tim, thanks for coming up with another helpful tool for us all
cheers
paul
Very cool.
Been getting new followers all day.
Will be interesting to see what happens when there are a few hundred people on the list.
Maybe at some point you can randomize the list and make it so you only need to follow X number of people to get added.
Great tool, Tim!
I am clicking to follow those not yet following, but twitter doesn’t seem to be adding them to the list of those I am following. Maybe Twitter is running behind with lots more people adding others to follow?
Now I know why I suddenly started to get more notifications of people following me today, thanks Tim!
Yeah… a really cool tool… 20 new followers today … I hope it will be a few 100’s lol…. Thanks again…
You are the Man!
Neat!
Just done a quick blog post and email to my members about this.
Nice one (again!) Tim
Thanks

Dude, the welcome video is great idea. I have never seen something like this before. But it should open start only on homepage because after some time it is quite boring.
lol it shows 3 times in case you click a few pages quickly before it loads. And its on every page so people coming in from search engines see it
Wow!!!!!! great job Tim. Twitter is definately sending a lot of notices.
You hit a home run on this one.

Great idea as always, Tim.
Keep up the good work and thanks.

Suggestion for the script. Make it so that the most recent addition to the list is moved to the number 1 spot. Then when someone else joins, the number 1 person gets bumped to number 2, etc. as more ussers are added to the list.
Thanks. — Dennis

Hi Tim,
It has been 24 hours and I have already received 75 followers from “Twitter me Fun”!!!
Thanks again!

How about creating a group program for digging, commenting, rating, etc.
[...] yesterday I used the script Tim Linden developed to amass followers through Twitter. Today, I spent most of my free time going through my 50-some-odd new follows to decide who I [...]
Looks like I’m going to have to join Twitter after all. Sounds like a really neat tool.
Thanks Tim!

Neat. Hope this can help people find out about The Massive Giving Group. Do you know how to make a soldier smile?
Ralph Lyons lastest blog post..Make a Soldier Smile
yeah, I on number 85
I made it to number 60 on the list and the links quit working for me. Is there a trick to getting the end of the list?

Right, done all that.
WHY have I done all that?
What use is it?
Allan
Allan, I wonder why myself. I used to keep the Twitter tab or Twirl open all day and actually read the tweets. I used to actually read the text messages I get from ListBandit, et al. I used to actually pay attention to the websites I was viewing in traffic exchanges; now there’s little more than billboard ads. I read the first couple thousand intels when Quassia was in prelaunch before it became so much garbage. What IS the point? When there is too much drivel, we simply must tune it out. Unless you are trying to build your “page value” so you can sell your tweets (which you CAN do) or sell advertising space on your page (which you CAN do), why follow simply for the sake of numbers? Why solicit followers simply for the sake of numbers when you know that with the addition of each new follower the likelihood that anyone’s reading your tweets diminishes.
I’ve read the books but I still do not understand. Guess I’m just dense. I still prefer to follow folks in whom I have some interest, folks whose tweets are interesting, folks who have shared some info in their bios, folks whose pages are nicely done, folks who might be interested in what I have to say.
Ahhhh, it’s a numbers game. I just hate to see Twitter become nothing but a rolling ad board, like comments in most social networking sites’ discussions have become. Suck it in, Karen, and just do it. Okay, I will.

Your Twitter feed only becomes filled with “Drivel” if you let it. Before I follow anyone back, I check out their recent tweets, and make sure that they aren’t just using Twitter as their personal ad-board. Now if they have something of value or interest to offer, I will definitely follow back.

Tim, great tool! I met a bunch of nice new people whom I’m happy to follow.
Allan, we’ll get the hang of it!
Karen Taylors lastest blog post..Oh, So Refreshing…
LOL I did it because I thought it’d be fun. I’ll unfollow anyone who’s spamming me with it, but I don’t mind people talking about whatever they are promoting.
Great idea Tim that seems to really be taking off. I just finished ‘following’ everyone and the response has been fantastic.

Nice little app Tim. I’ve seen similar in other social media, and their effect on ‘follower’ numbers has always been good, although the quality of these followers and their interest level in your field isn’t really known without further research and communication – some will doubtless become great friends/business associates, yet some may never even log into Twitter again.

it will not add my twitter name to list keeps saying invalid name lol

A truly awesome tool. My followers jumped from 600ish to almost 750 in a few days. And they are all people who either read this blog, nmf or other IM sources so this list is as targetted as it gets.
Hope the momentum continues.
You are awesome, i really can’t wait to see the outcome lol because there will be no outcome. This list is never going to end, I love the sound of that. Man, your a genius !!!!!!!!

Hi Tim – great idea but I have a problem – I keep following the list and then adding my username at the bottom but ito comes up as an error – the next time I come to the page there are another 20 names to follow and the same thing happens!! Can you add me at your end?? Also a feed does not show from my site – not sure what this means?? Thanks
Denise
sorry Tim my Twitter username is giveup9to5
Thanks
Denise
it worked this time – thanks again and merry Christmas everyone and a great 2009!
Denise
The list seems to be at a standstill, can WE promote this list somehow?
Never added my username to the bottom after I clicked go.
Any idea why?
Can you add it please.

Thanks.

The Twitter exchange is a good idea; however, there are too many MLM folks on that list. My experience with MLM people is . . . SPAM. Too much SPAM.
Perhaps a Twitter exchange that works like BlogExplosion.com would offer a nice alternative?
Genias lastest blog post..SistersTalk: @evajmah There are too many MLM people on that list. I don’t want to HAVE to follow them. Good idea, tho!
What a cool idea… I’ll go through the list! Thanks for sharing this.
