I signed up for Qwitter last week, because…I’m a masochist apparently? The service allows you to punishes you by showing who unfollows you on Twitter, presumably to better target your tweets and identify spambots, but really it just makes you feel extremely insecure by shining a light on exactly who decided they don’t like you (or at least your tweets) any more.
Yesterday I got my first email listing the six people who unfollowed me at @stylegf this week…and I immediately unsubscribed. What a terrible feeling! No thank you.
I emailed a friend about it and he had the best suggestion I’ve ever heard. “You should sign up for some kind of weekly affirmation instead,” he said. Something like, ‘Hey girl, I thought your tweets were spot on last week.’ That kind of thing.”
Throw in a Ryan Gosling pic, and this is a million-dollar idea. Somebody make it happen; I will be your first subscriber.
