So I joined, checkout out the MommyToo mag, and then clicked the Follow me on Twitter link. Then of course I saw your post that directed me here.<br><br>When people decide to follow me, even though I don't know why they are, I think it's nice of them. I have an autoresponder that thanks them and mentions my name and my blog if they want to visit. I do not automatically follow everyone who follows me, but I do reply to DMs. I agree with you-- I think it's rude to not reply to a legitimate message, but I admit it took me a few months to get the hang of DMs and even to learn how to get them sent to my phone :) Jennifer, I saw a blurb in the September issue of Black Enterprise magazine that mentioned the MommyToo Ning site.

Caught on quickly to the spam, porn and bot people. I am now at a point where I need to cultivate my network. I've got people who follow me, but the question is why? ...and are they someone I want to follow. What's the benefit to follow everyone that follows you?
