Recently I've found twitter to be a drag because I'm following way too many people.

I want to start following less people so I'm writing a web app that will tell you who tweets the most out of the people you follow.

I'd have it finished but I was going around in circles trying to solve a problem that I just realized I don't really need to solve yet.

I keep thinking of other features I could add, such as who retweets the most and who talks to other people I follow the most which doesn't help.

Are you aware of http://proxlet.com/ - similar but not the same - trying to cut down "twitter noise"
I wasn't. Finding twitter apps is really difficult, I never know what to search for.

This looks interesting. I'm going to try this out. It may replace the need for my app but I'll be finishing it anyway.

I would totally use this app.

I would especially like to be able to check potential new people to follow against my current list of followers to see what I'm getting into. Sorry, not helping :-)

Dammit you're not. This is a great idea. :)
