To Twit-Follow or Not to Twit-Follow Top 10 List

I am just over a month into Tweeting on Twitter and really committing to it everyday, learning something new, following and being followed, RT (ReTweeting) and posting updates with Tiny Urls. Life is great! I have become mesmerized with Twitter in so many ways. But this post is about my current rules on whether to Follow somebody who has decided to follow you. There are many articles of advice on this subject by many Tweeters, but I finally have decided on my own Top 10 rules and they are pretty simple.

1. I look for and want to have something in common with you: if you are 20 (I am 44) a male (I am female) you love punk rock (i loved punk rock too when I was 20 in the 80's isn't it over?), you party and want to make money on the internet with nothing really to sell, chances are we don't have much in common.
2. I am not just looking for the numbers game. I really don't know what that does exactly for anybody except boost the ego. Therefore I have a tendency to shy away from those who have astronomical numbers of followers. This is not a hard rule, but a tendency for me.
3. You are Funny!
4. You are loving!
5. You are giving without expecting anything in return.
6. You have a well written bio or a well designed background - sometimes wins me over.
7. You have more than 1-5 Updates.
8. Your Are Green, Sustainable, Eco Oriented
9. Your Updates are not just @so&so over and over and over again with no meat of your own
10. Your Updates are mostly followfridays (especially when it is Monday, Tues. Wed. or Thurs.)
