Topify Makes Twitter Following Easier

topify-logoTopify is a great Twitter tool to help manage your follower requests. It saves you a lot of time and removes a lot of the headaches associated with new Twitter followers.  The three main features are:

  1. Improved twitter email notifications
  2. Follow back users with a simple email reply
  3. Reply to direct messages via email

  2. You need to set your Twitter email to a new custom Topify address
