i am one of those guys who has made a request and received no response and i have about 90 followers. i am fine with this limitation. i know that i need to follow more people to get more followers, but it feels overwhelming trying to keep up for the folks i now follow. Alec Couros has over 60 posts in less than the last 24 hours, for example. i have 26 more folks i follow. nobody would argue that following 27 people is a lot, but it is if you aren’t a full time committed Twitter user. i suppose if i checked in many times a day that i’d keep up better, but i can go 2 days without checking in and then there is A LOT of information to skim through. certainly manageable, but not if i add 70 more people to follow; not without skipping much. at that point i’d have to make Twitter a bigger commitment and check in more often to try and keep up.

i try and only keep my posts to my profession (ed tech) and the people i follow are in my field. that works just swell helping me learn about new resources, etc. i also have a second twitter account where i have more followers. i only follow a few comedians on that account and a few friends, but having Rainn Wilson (Dwight on The Office) mention me in a tweet, because of something funny i wrote, instantly gave me an extra 100 followers, so that’s a strategy for gaining followers as well. ;~)

Great reminders here! Also helps those of us who don’t yet have a following/large PLN, feel better about where we are in the process.
Thanks!
