Even FridayReads tries to vary their nagging - when I get this interesting link over and over and over and...it becomes far less than interesting. I'd rather follow someone who tweets once a day than someone who tweets once an hour with one _new_tweet a day.jjmcgaffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01546108186137014999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-42707383243287168252012-04-03T10:53:35.968-04:002012-04-03T10:53:35.968-04:00Ugh, totally agree on the direct message; usually ...Ugh, totally agree on the direct message; usually this happens on people I follow back (I have stopped following everyone back; only follow back those people I'm genuinely interested in following...if they drop me since I don't follow back, oh well, I guess). Seriously, it tells me right away, "Hey, I only followed you in hopes you'd follow ME, and then I could tell you to buy my product." Makes me feel used. I know that's silly, but I get this feeling like I'm being targeted by a slimy used cars salesperson! :P I try to make genuine connections with people.<br /><br />I also hate when people only tweet about what they're doing. I don't care that you're at a hair appt. Tweet a good article I can read. (Occasional tweets like this are fine; it's just when that is most or all of what someone tweets when I unfollow them.)Lindsay Harrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09379628592162011068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-301624391384841312012-04-03T09:22:38.435-04:002012-04-03T09:22:38.435-04:00Yes, yes, yes!
