I am trying to get on the Twitter wagon. I can see how it can be addictive but it’s hard to find quality Twitter-ers. I’ve been following a bunch of random people and majority are only there to market and constantly post links. It’s also very hard to process and not get lost in the whole information overload that’s going on there. It seems that you have to either go all the way in or stay away from it altogether.

I have made a decision that I will stay away from twitter all together until someone gives me a good reason to join. Until now no one has been able to give me that reason. I think that twitter (and similar sites) are just a waste of time, and doesn’t give me anything of value..

i find too much spam comments on twitter to make it worthwhile using at all, that and not enough of my contacts use it to be useful in day to day business

They look like good reasons to me. Sometimes it turns out somebody’s taking way more than they’re giving (which can happen in a million ways–it’s a judgment call) and I’ll unfollow them for that.

Actually, it looks like you’ve managed to clearly say the things most of us have been thinking when we make the decision to follow/not follow/unfollow. Nicely done, Chris, thanks for saying it just the same!

One thing to keep in mind re: rule #3:

Good idea, but you can’t have a conversation until people follow you. There are people out there who I follow and would like to converse with, but I can’t because many of them don’t follow me (and my friends who do follow me aren’t big twitterers).

You could make the argument that I’m boring and not worth following and therefore the lack of @replies is still a significant indication of my follow-worthiness if not an indicator of my willingness to converse. You’d be wrong, but you could make the argument.

Hopefully the good folks at Twitter will build some of that same search/filtering functionality directly into the Twitter site itself sometime soon.
