Buy twitter followers these days rather than following the old created way of holding out around around for people to adhere to them. Twitter has quickly become a new trend and has drawn the attention of web promoters as well as companies.

@daniel
twitter definitely becomes a "little black book" type of platform.

@michael
good point, the twitter followers who want to "learn." However if you look at their "following" pattern would you not consider these people minimalists or converstionalists? perhaps i should expand the definition

@nikki
well since you're reading this blog you're cool in my book :) it's not the quantity of followers you have but the quality of the discussions, that matters.

@Alex
I try to do the same as well, it's important to be able to provide value to the followers.

thanks everyone for commenting and for reading, hope to hear from all of you again soon.

Great take on explaining the Twitter-verse! I especially like the conversationalists and people who provide URLs to helpful content or respond when I post a question. I try to do the same in return.

Happy Twittering =)

I agree with michael - a lot of people follow others, not to engage in conversation, but to glean information, find new trends, and find info to pass on.

Some of the people I follow are people I like to chat with, others are people I like to learn from, and yet others are people I just like to keep an eye on ;)

I recently asked my followers why they followed me (I only have 200 or so but I wanted to know) and most of the said they follow because they like my articles and like the tips I Tweet.

Unfortunately no-one said they followed me because i was cool :(

How about the Twitter users that are Following only to gleen a bit of genius from their target? I'd say about 45% Kevin Rose and Scoble followers fall into this category, while another 45% just want to be able to brag that they follow someone cool.

As we see micro-blogging pop up, I think we are really getting a sense of the nature of humanity itself. There is a lot of revealing information about human beings themselves in this post that transcends Twitter.
