Automating Task using Macros - Make Computing More Easier

From a Few days i have been on Twitter and for a few days i almost forgot to check the mails and the result was about 300+ mails from twitter informing me about guys who were following me back. Now due to recent change in follower policy i couldn't use scripts to Auto Follow them back and manually checking the mails and following those guys would take hell lotta time , so thought to teach the computer to automate the whole process for me using a Loop . So googled for Softwares to create and execute Macros  to do the task and found a few Free Softwares like this

>> AutoHotkey
>> AutoIT
>> Do It Again

Among which i think Do It Again was the Simplest one. I downloaded it Made it to start Recording.Just clicked on a Twitter Profile link then click on "Follow" Button on the Next page which was opened and after It was shown "You are Following this person" then closed the Tab. And i stopped the recording. Now the unread mails were around 352+ Mails , so i just set the Macro to repeat the same step about 352 Times and Started / Executed the scripts and voila ! It ran flawlessly . There might be few exceptions like the web page or another component may become irresponsive , for such cases , there is a Delay Setting provided with the program , use it to avoid such situations a Bit.

This Program made me even more lazy than i was ever !

Special Mentions is the AutoIT , It got an Advanced Script Editor , so you can configure even more Advanced Features of it , the Script editor let you script / edit more aspects of it.

So and Automate your Repeatative Task and Relax and Live the CyberLazy way of life
