        Agreed. For me, it's about who I follow than what I post. It's a little bit FB status, IRC chat/mass IM/news feed pushed to me. If you aren't posting anything interesting and relevant to me, then I'm not following you. I don't care if once in a while you tweet what you had for lunch, but if that's all you do, then c-ya.
        
        My local community has a great twitter community, and I find about all sorts of stuff going on in town including job offers and whatnot. I'm interested in what Neil Gaiman tweets about. I think it's cool that Imogen Heap tweets about the recording process of her new CD. Or that Jason Santamaria is working on a replacement for sIFR, etc.
