I don't “do” Twitter either. I joined to help the Iranian people. I only “post” there when I want to get some news out, much the same as at FR, except I post on the UT here sometimes.

I follow Jim Robinson, Jeff Head, Sarah Palin, and two twitterers from Iran.
I have some followers, but I have no idea who they are, nor do I care.
Twitter doesn't have to be about ego.

>>Twitter doesn’t have to be about ego.<<

Following famous and interesting people may be the hot ticket. It never occurred to me to follow JR — might be fun.

And I do have admit Twitter was a portal for Iran — until MJ’s silly passing took over all the bandwidth on every communication channel.

Which clearly points out its downside.
