TweetBlocker.com - Keeping Spammers Away From Twitter

I have noticed a trend when it comes to applications for keeping a cleaner, spam-free Twitter account. Of course, that can be explained by the ever increasing rise of the San Francisco-based company: as more users moved in, it was natural that more spammers were to start directing their glances towards Twitter. And it was just as natural that those who had the technical wherewithal to fight them back would do so.

This particular application is wholly free, and it employs advanced filtering for cataloging and ranking the ones who have become the biggest Twitter spammers. You login via Twitter, and a report is there and then produced for you to weigh up. A bookmaklet is likewise provided, and using it you can report spammy users immediately so that others can take action.

When all is said and done, this free tool is there to make using Twitter a more focused experience. If you have had it with spammers, checking it out will likely be a step in the direction you want to go.

Spam is becoming sadly frequent when tweeting. This service aims to redress the situation as much as it can.

Can spam be eradicated once and for all from Twitter? Or is it a lost battle?
