I sometimes see people post on Twitter to the #followfriday category. Today I decided to go for #unfollowfriday.

It was a tough decision, honestly. I like the variety of what the people I follow on Twitter bring. Some are of a professional interest, others were of more personal interest to me, and still others were friends. But I have so much crap flying by on Twitter that I rarely even fire up a Twitter client because I just don’t care.

So I went for broke and removed most of the high-volume Twitterers I follow, along with a few that I never should have followed like snoopdogg. I hope I haven’t hurt anyone’s feelings, but I just couldn’t keep up with all of the tweets. Now I’ve got a pared-down offering so I can savor each tweet.
