After using twitter for a while you’ll start receiving a great deal of emails informing you that other members have begun to follow you on that service. While this is all good news, it can become quite tedious and time-consuming to go through each and every one to determine if you should follow them back. Some people setup bots that automatically follows back anyone that follows them but increasing numbers are no longer using this method because of the proliferation of spammers and other less than honorable types. Thus, we are left with the annoying manual method.
Well, in steps TwiMailer that’s an online service that wants to act as your virtual assistant for all things Twitter related. All new emails with follower information is intercepted and presented in a easy to digest view, thus improving the process a great deal. I think it’s worth a try anyway. Tell me what you think in the comments. Do you think you will use it from now on instead of the old method or not?
Here’s a quick screencast of how it works.

LOVE this. Besides getting followed more and more myself, I deal with administrating a celebrity's twitter account and his growing followership. And until now, I've had to rely on an autofollow bot just to keep up. Like you said, then he ends up autofollowing spammers. Not exactly what we had in mind.I'm going to try right now. And if I like it, I'll spread the word. Thanks!

The e-mails I get from Twitter are indeed worthless and the number of hardcore spammers increases daily! Will try it – thanks for the tip.
