If you only want to be on twitter for your ego and you don't actually have the ability to massage that ego, then who honestly cares.
The three suggestions in this post... just no. I get why people follow celebrities, I don't want to myself, but many people do so fair enough. But follow random people, and get random people to follow me? Twitter is a communication tool, just like email, Skype, whatever. It's quite possible for it to be useful with the people you actually know, you don't have to use it as service for finding people you don't know to make yourself look popular.
- diego 15y agoYou're missing the point. The most value I get from Twitter comes from interacting with other people, especially in serendipitous ways. It's not about being followed by random people at all; it's about following (and being followed by) people with whom you could have interesting conversations.
