How does this differ from Flashtweet? Is there more automation?

Here my review of Hummingbird
It follows everything on a given page loaded in the program (max 20 at a time)
The best feature is the unfollow as it will unfollow only people that are not mutual followers
My biggest complaint is that it cannot proceed to another page to follow/unfollow automatically. It can only do it one page at a time, so you'd be stuck sitting there clicking Next, Follow All, Next Follow All. Boring.....
I had to use a macro to get it to automatically click the next page then follow, worked great then
Ok so if it's best feature is that it will unfollow people that are not mutual followers than here is something you can all use for free:

Sounds like it's just a glorified blacklist manager now

I have not used Lively's, but i do have Hummingbird (thx luohan). It is good but not worth $200. You can do the same thing with a little effort with Twitter Karma, Friend or Follow, Flashtweet, etc.

I'm a HUGE Hummingbird fan. It is the "Holy Grail" of all Twitter network building tools. Here's how one of my accounts has grown over the last 90 days.

Hummingbird does auto go to next page and follow/unfollow automatically. Basically it is a set and forget kind of software.
Hummingbird *does* follow/unfollow on multiple pages as huker999 says. You jsut have to give it some time to do its thing.
Also know that Hummingbird can only work within the confines of the Twitter system, i.e. as of this week you can only follow 1000 people per day.
The main thing I *do not* like about Hummingbird is that it is a resource hog. Look at the memory and CPU it uses to do its thing -- ridiculous. yeah it is pretty and show you the pages, but at a cost.
I prefer LivelyBroswer's tool given that I have more discreet control over how the program uses my system resources. Also, I don't need the pretty pictures of Hummingbird given the cost to performance.
LivelBroswer's tool is more agile and flexible -- if you know how to use it correctly.
And for -- I don't get a kickback from promoting Lively's tools...

How can I break the 2K limit with HB ?

Breaking the 2k limit has nothing to do with the capability of HB or other auto software. You just have to keep doing , follow, unfollow till you reach your target.
