I don't know. The people I follow on Twitter don't seem to use it in the "high school" way, and neither do I - I don't automatically follow someone just because they follow me. I might, if they're saying interesting or fun stuff; I'm not saying I only tweet nuggets of wisdom myself, but I do aim for some degree of quality. I don't follow "influencial" people for the sake of it, I have my doubts that really helps. On the other hand, I've met some really cool people and also clients through it, which helped a lot, especially as I moved to Vienna knowing virtually nobody. I have however found that I do need to keep my follow list in check, or the stream of information is overwhelming.
