It's a universal internet truth that sometimes people will de-friend you on Facebook, unfollow you on Twitter and remove you from their Google RSS Reader. The key is not to sweat it, and ideally, not notice it. But that's not what the people at Tweeple Twak want.
Although currently in private Alpha, they are hoping to provide a service whereby you'll be alerted when someone unfollows you on Twitter. They will even send a 'discreet' message to the unfollower so you can 'gain insight' into why you were dropped. Because a message saying "Um, hi. I noticed you unfollowed me. Was it my political views? Was it my misspelling? Was it because I said that you chewed too loudly? WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME?' won't be awkward at all.
And as if this service wasn't cringe-worthy enough, the entire site is written as if by a four year old with a lisp, from the tagline - 'Wha happened to my tweeps?' to the lexicon 'twaking system'. Oh. God.
