So, Twitter have changed the way you can view @messages and people are in uproar.
Basically, the change means that if someone you follow replies to someone you DON’T follow, then you won’t see that message in your Twitter stream.
Well I say “Yay!”
But people are complaining, arms are raised, and uproar is being tweeted, retweeted and re-retweeted. Hashtags galore are being deployed, and people are complaining that ‘Twitter are taking away our choice’.
Well, I just don’t get the fuss.
It shouldn’t be the be all and end all of Twitter, but lots of people are focused on getting as many people to follow them as possible.
Personally I would rather have a few people really interested in what I have to share than thousands who are just following me in the hope I will follow them back.
But people like Kevin Rose and Robert Scoble have thousands of followers seriously interested in what they have to say – what’s not to like about that?
The fabulous doshdosh has a post today on how to get more twitter followers.
Good morning Twitter campers – a fairly hefty roundup this morning as lots of news and views coming in by email as well as on our twitter radar!
