This should not be so binary - follow/unfollow. PArtly because lack of interaction is not necessarily a sign of lack of interest as much as just different phases of life.
Rather, I think it should be more fine-grained and gradual, kind of depreciating down to lower-level follows, and eventually falling off after a bunch of steps. And, the ability to occasionally scan the depreciation levels to see if someone should be re-activated (oh, I've been meaning to get in touch...)
And of course, the distinction Eugene makes between the Interest graph vs the Social graph is spot-on -- it make so much about the dysfunctional social media system so obvious.
