"By dint of railing at idiots you run the risk of becoming an idiot yourself." (Gustave Flaubert)
Where do these strange people on Twitter come from and why do they decide that I am someone they should follow, particularly as I never add them back?
I have blocked a couple of obvious robots, but others seem as they may be genuine people who use Twitter's advertising links to generate a little revenue here and there, but if I never visit their links or add them as someone to 'follow', where is the money?
I quite like Twitter in its own little way, but I do find Twitterings posted to LJ to be pointless, so you won't find me doing it (even if I could fathom out precisely how).
