lizbdavis asks Jul 08, 2008 12:15PM why do I have so many new followers on Twitter - I've hardly been on Twitter at all lately. Wierd (and they don't seem to be spam).
nnorris says Jul 08, 2008 12:19PM that's true for me too, I wondered what's up with that, maybe they heard about twitter at NECC and looked for edtech people to follow
LParisi says Jul 08, 2008 12:19PM I think, also, that is it coming from NECC. Many more followers since then.
lizbdavis says Jul 08, 2008 12:21PM I do think it must be because of NECC. My Twitter network has gotten huge (900+). I'm trying to keep Plurk more manageable.
LParisi says Jul 08, 2008 12:24PM Wow, you have more than me! I have over 700. Will only follow about 150. Can't keep up.
Kymberli_M Jul 08, 2008 12:31PM Wonder if it's due to some of your screencasts being passed along. DO you have a "Follow me at..." spot on your blog's front page?
lizbdavis says Jul 08, 2008 04:07PM kmulford I do have link to my Twitter page on my blog. Maybe I should take it off... Since I have talked up Twitter so much - I feel bad
LParisi says Jul 08, 2008 06:50PM I rarely follow newbies to begin with. Not many followed me when I started. Need posts first.
nnorris asks Jul 08, 2008 08:05PM LParisi define "newbie" and what do you mean "need posts first", them "newbies" or you? How would you see their posts if you don't follow?
KarinB says Jul 08, 2008 08:59PM lizbdavis don't feel badly about not following back. Let folks follow you, they will learn a lot!
