I don't have much time for "social media" this week, but I have been wondering how other people choose who to #follow here? Do you have that team followback urge? I vascillate on that.

Personally, I don't really have to be interested in what you're interested in to follow you, it's more like if you seem to have good spirit and humor, enthusiasm for something, but also maybe a range of interests rather than just one.

I like a little bit of #dialogue, doesn't have to be lots. How about you?

@liliales It’s random for me. Common interests are always awesome, of course. And a profile pic and bio works wonders with me also. And not just reblogging things.

@SaddlerFan Yes, I feel that reblogging is helpful, but if it's all you do, well, we're not getting to know you at all.

@liliales Exactly! I mean on Twitter people who only RT things are often bots. So… really not something I care to explore. I enjoy looking at peoples’ reblogs, it’s how this place works, but I also want to read SOME stuff about their thoughts and what they’re up to etc.

@SaddlerFan It's like we have a chance here to use a reset button, I think, and get back to what we liked about it all in the beginning.

@liliales I agree. I was there on Twitter back in the day when it was a lot like this site is now. It does feel like a second chance to get it right this time and not let corporations and algorithms and billionaires take over.
