Hi, @castleberry. I agree with you on the tools. But what you say about following people concerns me. I've been following everybody that follows me because I don't really get how the feed works. I need to understand more about how to controll that, because currently I just search everything instead of scrolling on my feed.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
It is quite natural when starting out to follow those who follow you. To some degree I still do this. But now I am more selective, and take a look at their blog and the material they produce. Usually a simple follow isn't enough, but regular commenters are the ones that get attention.
The reason for this is that eventually your feed will just get too full and you miss many good posts. But you'll work out your rhythm and what works for you.
You're right. I hope there's something about this subject in this bootcamp (says @markrmorrisjr while clearing throat). I think it's not easy to be selective in this platform. So much for the feedback @naquoya!
It'll make a good lesson, so maybe it will be there. Otherwise its one of those thing we learn from trial and error. That's why i wonder at those accounts who follow thousands of people. You couldn't possibly interact with that many people.
Having a core (or several core) tags that interest you is a good place to start, like discussed in lesson 1. Maybe start your selection process from that angle.
