Is there a way to follow someone on twitter and not receive their updates?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I follow a number of people but only have the best ones update to my cell phone. Those who tweet too often or uninterestingly, I can skim a few times a week on the Twitter site while I'm on-line. I also use the twitterfox add-on for firefox so new tweets from anyone show up briefly at the bottom of my screen then go away.
On the off chance that you don't know how to change the device updates feature:
--click the "_following_" link underneath your username on your Twitter home page
--a list of all the people you follow will magically appear
--under each persons name you'll see "Device updates:" and you can click Yes for the ones you want sent to your phone (or other mobile device) and No for the ones you are wishing you didn't have to read so often.
If you don't even want to skim over them in the list on your twitter homepage, I'm afraid the only option is to unfollow them. Maybe if you explain first that you are scaling back and trying to simplify they won't be hurt???
