Remember the good old days, back when you first started tweeting? Twitter was new or you were new to twitter and the twitterverse stretched before you ripe with opportunity. Since then you’ve acquired followers, probably lots of them, some you tweet with regularly and others who appear simply to be along for the ride. Wouldn’t it be nice to turn back the clock, just for a minute, to recall your twitter roots and rediscover your first follower?
FirstFollower.com allows you to do that and they make it simple and fast; much faster than you could do on your own. FirstFollower.com is streamlined and utilitarian. When you land on the page your are prompted to enter your user name and hit the ‘Wanna Know’ button and in a few short seconds you are transported back to your first follower. If you want, you can even send a tweet to recognize your first twitter friend. And you should, just for old times sake, send them a shout out!
If you are the curious sort, you can also input anyone’s Twitter name and find out who their first follower was. We tested a few and here’s what we learned:
Ashton Kutcher’s @aplusk first follower was @mbaratz a product manager at MTV
Conon O’Brien’s @nbcconan first follower was @greta_anderson of Los Angeles. Do you think Conan will drop the NBC from his Twitter name soon?
Britney Spears’ @brineyspears first follower was @BellaDawn a Women’s Trendy Celebrity Style Online Shopping Boutique
First Follower was built by Victor Babichev, a Russian developer, and is available in both English and Russian language versions. You can follow Victor @babi4 or keep up with the First Follower stream @first_follower
