I just only follow back people I want to. I do look at every profile of someone who follows me. If they are following 2000 and only have 25 followers and are a web designer in Missouri... I just don't need to follow that person. If they are in my town, I met them at a tweet-up, and I think they have something worth reading, I'll give them a shot. The other thing I hate, people who follow you just to get you to follow them back. Then when you follow them back they unfollow you right away. I can't tell you how many times John Chow and Jeremy Shoemaker have followed and unfollowed me. They really need to get a life! I don't block people who want to follow me.

But, how do you know that they don't want to follow you? How would you know? How would you know that the blog content thatyou may link isn't something they need?<br /><br />:) Each his own here, of course.<br /><br />thanks man! Adam,

I follow this strategy with my work accounts [because I really don't use work accounts to engage a ton] but for my personal account I just don't want to be bothered by building an inauthentic throng of people I don't know and don't really want to know me.

I've been pretty selective w/who I follow... One thing I did notice was when I looked at my own graphs, my followers (obviously) went WAY up when I stopped protecting my updates. I did that for a very specific reason for awhile, but things started to increase a lot then...and I do try to block spambots... But yah - I'm a Tweetie user (haven't gotten into Tweetdeck) -- so I would be stuck with a ton of updates that I just didn't really care about...... Tempting man…very tempting to do that.
