A Better Follow Friday

spf13 ·

Follow Friday is a common practice on Twitter (http://twitter.com/) where many people spend friday posting things like #FF @aplusk (http://twitter.com/aplusk) @guykawasaki (http://twitter.com/guykawasaki) …  This practice is distracting at best and fails to accomplish the single purpose it intends. Follow friday began as way to share lesser known twitter users with your community. A great idea that quickly grew out of control. I propose a better implementation that will not only accomplish the original intent but will do so in a non-distrcting manner by leveraging twitter lists. I propose that any individual that wants to share their recent finds, favorite follows or other gems create a list called “recommends”. Keep a handful of people on this list. Cycle them out as often as you like. You can find mine at@spf13/recommends (http://twitter.com/spf13/recommends)
