I just started Twittering about two weeks ago. I started following a few of the business (and non-business) thinkers that I admire. Then I started getting some followers. Who are they and why are they following me? I could figure out why some people might follow me. Others, I wasn't so sure. Here is my biggest guideline so far: If you tweet about trying to get 1,000 or 10,000 followers just for the sake of getting followers, chances are that I will not follow you. Just like blogging, content is king for me. If you offer some good content, amusing content, interesting content, something that isn't spam, etc. I'll follow you. I still follow a good percentage of the people that follow me -- but for those people who are just trying to be popular for popularity's sake I won't follow Nadia:
