Don’t be too surprised if Twitter suspends you (“suspicious activity”) for adding follows via a script, as described in this post. It happened to me, despite the fact that I throttled my script to send requests at the rate of about one every two minutes. All this probably resulted in a few too many block requests from users reporting me as spam in a relatively short period of time. I got reinstated quickly enough after explaining things to Twitter.

If you’re planning to follow a bunch of people this way, you might want to do it in small chunks spread over several days (although I’m not sure it will help if too many users decide to report you as spam).
