"The practice has become so widespread that StatusPeople, a social media management company in London, released a Web tool last month called the Fake Follower Check that it says can ascertain how many fake followers you and your friends have," the Times reports.  
"Fake accounts tend to follow a lot of people but have few followers," said Rob Waller, a founder of StatusPeople. "We then combine that with a few other metrics to confirm the account is fake."

Just saw the D'Souza documentary today. Loved it. Very well made by a smart guy. Obama is doing his best to dismantle the country. Let's hope he doesn't get a second term.
