Handlescout

In plain words

Handlescout is a free service that monitors Twitter usernames and sends email notifications when a desired handle becomes available. It targets social media users and marketers who want to claim specific Twitter handles. The service automates the process of watching for username availability rather than manually checking repeatedly.
