Today my twitter account cross the 1,000 followers level.
I'm happy, but what's next?

Yet I discovered something serious... Twitter don't work!
Yes Twitter don't work as I want it, because the quality of followers is getting worse than ever.
When Twitter first was launched, I got some followers, and a rival of dozen of visitors comparing to the number of followers.

Now I notice that people no longer look on your tweets, that's simple.
Every one now, is social, like me, have thousands of followers, this lead to two things

• The more people you follow, the less you'll read their twits, you can keep with 10 or 15 friends tweets but not 3000!
• I no longer click on links, I feel that they are promotional and want to gain from my traffic and I think most of people does.
  

So I change from Twitter?
Yet, I think FaceBook can be another solution but won't provide rival of traffic.

The problem with Twitter, is 'The Wrong Growth'.
You can have (will have) more followers, but the result is always the same. This is because not only people are joining Twitter, but also because current members are addicted to click the Follow button and follow anyone.

Here's a picture (old) that shows the number of followers for top 100 on Twitter Holic
Now here's a newer one

There had been an unusual growth on Twitter and the result is 'Quantity Trumps Quality'!
But I want to know if this happened to you also??
