JustUnfollow

Personally, I took great care for services which “help you better manage your Twitter followers,” because I would like to work on this kind of thing on my own time, in batches – going back through who I should be adding back, or cleaning out those accounts which have long ago abandoned Twitter – like old startups who have since moved on (…e.g., to Yahoo). JustUnfollow is a longtime player in the business of Twitter friend management, having first gotten a somewhat inauspicious start when TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington wrote that "the app didn’t work properly", leading to some internal office fighting. The company has made progress since then adding support for Instagram in January, and recently reaching some 4 million users – up from its 1 million user milestone in August of last year.

Netherlands creates history

Image
In almost all the countries across the globe, cell phones are not fully integrated with sim cards that allow you to change operators without removing the sim card as these are illegal. Netherlands has become the first country to legalize this.This concept of fully integrating  the cell phone with sim card helps expand the concept of internet of things. Now you may be thinking what is internet of things? The Internet of Things refers to uniquely identifiable objects and their virtual representations in an Internet-like structure.If all objects and people are assigned some identifiers then they can be detected and managed by computers. Thus, when carrier free sim cards are integrated in the cell phone then the customer can change the carrier according to their requirement.
