Five "thou shalt not follow" rules of twitter
How do you select who to follow back on twitter? Generally I first weed through my follower list before I decide who to follow back. I don't care about quantity, I am only interested in following genuine tweeps (with a few exceptions). But I'd like to talk about some rules, not the exceptions.
I use some very simple rules to determine who I won't follow and block them if necessary:
- If I see mention of "teeth whitening" I'm taking out the white-out and blocking that tweep.
- If the tweets talk about "easy money" "passive income" etc, I ease them off my twitter list.
- If there is no bio - you're invisible so I can't follow you!
- If all tweets are just RTs - it's not a tweep it's a bot and I will stay loyal to my other bots (google reader, etc)
- If porn - ok, if you've made it this far down the list pls give me 2 good reasons why I'd follow a porn-bot...
