People come and people go..
Some people update their Twitter statuses regularly and others not so regularly.. sometimes not at all!
Some people’s last tweet may have been many months ago.. or even years ago.
You would be surprised how many inactive Twitter accounts you are following or that are following you.
There is no point following any inactive Twitter accounts.. so here are a dozen free tools to help clean out the trash.
