FavFollow Twitter Meme Announcement
Posted by Ash on January 1st, 2009 in Blogs, Social Networking | 16 Comments »
What is FavFollow?
We all have our own network on Twitter and although there is overlap it’s difficult to know which friends-of-friends to follow. This allows us to share our favorite Rockstar Twits with our network.
For example: I can tell you about the Rockstars I follow and why I appreciate them so much.
What this is not:
- This is not a contest
- There are no votes
- There is no deadline
- There is no pandering
- There are no expectations
Why FavFollow?
For many, Twitter has gotten to the point where we follow more people than we can possible *listen* to. How do we handle this? Some use software like TweetDeck to create groups and others follow everyone on the web and send their favorites to their mobile; keeping in touch only through sms. On occasion we all check into Twitter Search but that information doesn’t come to us.
How do I participate?
I suggest we use the tag: #favfollow, and a few standards, to make it easy to promote our Rockstar twits.
Suggestions:
- use hash tag #favfollow
- mention the person to follow: @ashbuckles
- tell your network why they’re a Rockstar twit in your mind
- include things they tweet so we know what to expect from them
- maybe include their frequency; scale 1 (low) to 10 (high)
- maybe include the mood of their feed (e.g. sarcastic, funny, serious, safe [work/family], unsafe)
- WARNING: don’t start your tweet with the person’s name or some people in your network will not receive your tweet.
Example tweet: #favfollow @ashbuckles Very passionate about Twitter. Offers advice on marketing. Shares links on WordPress, SEO, Promotions. Freq=7/10.
Who is involved in this?
Anyone. Everyone. But seriously I like to think that I, Ash Buckles, came up with this all by myself because I’m just that good.
Disclosure: I didn’t do any research to verify the above statement; mostly because I’m lazy.

A competent but not necessarily technical person can have an idea and by
using Arduinos and its associated programming language be able to
express it in a reasonable short time at very little cost. There is a
real magic in that su deposu
