TwiPing is a windows desktop application that helps you better manage your twitter followers.

Built on the .Net Framework, TwiPing has quite a few features when it comes to following and unfollowing the bulk of twitter users. You can put twitter users into a batch and then choose to bulk unfollow or follow them.

Select any twitter user and get a list of all the friends or followers for that user. You can also bulk follow followers or friends of any twitter user.

Find out friends who aren’t following you back and unfollow them. You also get to follow back all those who follow you but whom you do not follow back.

Make use of the powerful Filter to get only those users who are of interest to you.

Quickie

Follow any twitter users friends or followers in bulk

TwiPing Says

Find someone influential in the field you are interested in. Use TwiPing to get a list of all of their followers. Apply a filter using keywords specific to your interest. This weeds out any of their followers you are not interested in. Select this batch of users and follow all of them with one click. If your profile and message is interesting to these people, they will follow you. Rinse, lather and repeat.

Im a new user of twiping, great for removing those who arent following you, and adding those that follow but you havent followed yet, but there is a great resource there to ping a lot of folks from others lists, I have pinged, but Im not sure what Im doing.. Dont you have to have a message set to send when pinging? If so where or how do you place a message to be pinged to all those people?

I noticed at the top of the page you really only hit on the adding batches or removing batches of people, but isnt there much more to twiping?

Thanks, hope you can help, by the way your backgrounds are awesome and I will be buying one as soon as I have my info all together and my sites up.

@Ken

The “Ping” button should according to us, not be used at all! When you hit the ping button, it Follows and Unfollows a twitter user. Not a good idea!

The application was basically built for following and unfollowing and as far as I can see there are only so many features – Follow, Unfollow, View a users Friends, View a User’s followers.

Can we follow and unfollow a specific amount of people at a time?

For example, if I get a list of followers of a popular twitter user and he has thousands and I auto follow them all that will put a red flag up at twitter and could get my acct. suspended or worse cancelled.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give with my concerns.

Tony

PS This site is a great resource thanks!

As far as I know, you cannot do that with this software currently.

Hi, is there a way to follow hashtags, like with Twubs?

With TwiPing you can do a twitter search on the hash tag, then follow the users that match.
