Hi, Layla.

That pretty much sums up my approach too.

lol!

I think your Tweet-philosophy is quite similar to mine! (and I’m still struggling with it all, mind you!:)

I follow some people just for the fun of it, some cause they’re strangely inspiring, some cause they have the same 2st name as my best friends and some cause they’re gurus and knowledge fountains!

And now I’m gonna /gasp/ follow you! lol!

I’ve been using TweekDeck to organize my Twitter usage. I created a group who are the people that I care about more and I read every single tweet from that group. For the rest of them, I just skim for stuff that catches my eyes. After a while, I realized that I no longer really look at or skim the “everybody else” group. I think I might spend some time to just clean those off my list sometime.

As for who I follow, I will look at the retweets and follow-fridays of the people whose tweets I already like. They are more likely to suggest who/what I might also like. Also, I tend to follow every blogger whose RSS feed I already subscribe to, and vice versa.

I so agree with what you are saying. Basically, experts aside, you have to decide your own Tweet philosophy. (Very similar to what we all must do in the big picture of life)

I determined what my purpose is in Tweeting and basically have been true to my purpose. Happily, the returns have been what I expected.

Love your site!
