Adam Kmiec enumerates what he looks for in a Tweet, and why he decides to follow certain people.I’ll add my own criteria. Like Adam, I follow people who link to interesting content. They’re like scouts. I also like humor and on-the-ground reporting. (I enjoyed Ana Marie Cox on the campaign trail, and now I see her following has ballooned to 148,000.)
When I check someone’s page and see a lot of @ replies, I tend not to follow, because they seem to be tied up in conversations that don’t involve me. No criticism involved. It’s just a matter of what you want in the mix.
