Matthew Moore on Twitter faux pas.
Michael Cane on his guidelines about whether to follow you on twitter.
2) You Follow more than 1,000. Really, what is up with that? I’ve Blocked someone who was Following
over twenty-five thousandforty-two thousand. That’s not having a conversation! That’s performing espionage on a small town!…
