The Twitter Blacklist (what Digg needs)

twitterblacklist.com — "These are known spammers and other morons on Twitter. What is a Twitter spammer? Measure a user's ratio of how many they follow to how many follow them: 1:5 = twittercaster, 1:2 = notable, 1:1 socially healthy, 2:1 newbie or social climber, 5:1 twitter spammer." (We need this for Digg!)

  • TheoBaskind, on 05/07/2008, -0/+0This is extremely informative! If you're a Twitterer then you may want to bookmark this site to keep an eye on what others think of your Twits....

  • petdance, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1OTOH, it would be swell if Twitter provided the Follow Factor for us automatically.
  • qrusti, on 05/08/2008, -1/+0the method in which it black lists people is seriously flawed, no creative process has been implemented into this program. it's like saying red cars have the highest rate accident thus we should black list all red cars from the road... no IDIOT, it's the driver's fault!!! you need to get into the roots of spam and block that
  • rjray, on 05/10/2008, -0/+0Well, grusti, when you have a suggestion rather than just a whiny complaint feel free to use the contact information to share it with the developers.
  • eyeaim, on 06/07/2008, -1/+0I think Twitter should sue this outfit for indluding "twitter" in the domain name.

  • torchstar, on 07/02/2008, -0/+0I am so grateful to be able to see if the new twitter followers I get have been offensive to someone else. And HEY! why don't I get an email announcing the new blacklisted twitterer like I do for other new twitter followers? Thanks Blacklist Check!
