| July 01, 2009 | | The new followers page is definitely a step in the right direction, but it has a ways to go. | | When I heard Twitter had a new followers page UI, I was hopeful that it would solve some of the follower management tedium. While it does do a little, some fundamental issues remain: - There is not enough detail (in most cases) to make a follow/no-follow/block/spam decision. I’d like to be able to get more details about the user without visiting their profile page.
- There should be a “block & report as spam” button.
- There is still a “referral spam” incentive for spammer to follow everyone under the sun. IMO followers should not show up in the followers page publicly by default (or at least there should be an option for this). I don’t want dozens of porn sites, gambling sites, get-a-million-followers-a-day sites, etc. linked to from my followers page but with the current toolset, it is tedious to keep them off.
Don't get me wrong, I like the new followers page better than the old one. But I'm still looking for some refinements because follower management is still too tedious. [This post is based on a comment I originally left on blog post by @LiveCrunch.] | | |
