Twitter is ALL ABOUT who you follow. I hated it for years, until a popular post here on HN a couple months ago.

A user compiled an absolute SUPER LIST of the best people to follow, and now my feed is full of really interesting information, diverse viewpoints, and stuff I wouldn't find anywhere else.

This one account was kind of the tipping point for me, finding GOOD TWITTER

My rule is never following more than 60.

If I hit 60 it's one in one out and I have to think about which one to drop, that way I keep a feed that updates relatively slowly, is useful and full of content I actually am interested in.

If you follow too many you loose far too much wheat in the chaff.
