I think it was a great move to stop auto following everybody. Some of those people that follow us are spammers. so following a spammer is not really a good things.
To tell you the truth I personally feel bad when I don’t follow people. Sometimes I don’t follow them because I think they truly won’t like what I have to say. I know I shouldn’t but I don’t like hurting anyone’s feelings ( or have them feel rejected) but that’s just me.
Anyways- I totally have to go learn Tweetdeck or Seesmick to make my time on twitter more productive- 4 sure.
And for that I’ll be learning through your videos.
All the best,
Eren Mckay

I agree Sharon – there are no rules on Twitter, except those that Twitter themselves would put into place. Yet, I believe most are trying to use this tool effectively, responsibly and with some meaning and/or purpose, and in doing so – people share what they have found works, and what doesn’t. Nothing wrong with sharing your results, thoughts and opinions so long as everyone realizes that ‘your mileage may vary’ and we’re not talking rules here, just results, preferences and opinions.

Thanks for your input Allan. I tend to agree that when someone has so many followers compared to how many they are following – it gives the appearance anyway that they are there to just broadcast out their one-way messages. Whether that’s their intent or not, it does give that appearance.
