Just read over at Rands in Response his three rules of Twitter Equilibrium. Which all make perfect sense:

Rule #1: Remove noisy people. Even if you love them. Probably the easiest way to get turned off Twitter is following someone who is filling Twitter with useless noise. This is especially common with newcomers who are still figuring out that Twitter is the king of casual information, so I cut new people some slack. If the problem persists, they're out. Good friends who I talk with daily get noisy and get removed, too, but, yeah, I eventually end up following them again.

Rule #2: Follow Rands' First Law of Information Management. Which reads: "For each new piece of information you track, there is an equally old and useless piece of information you must throw away." If you continue to follow new people, eventually they're going to overwhelm you with their casual information flood, so you must get in the habit of removing a person for each new person that you follow. Incidentally, the first law tastes great with RSS feeds as well.

Rule #3: Find ways to stumble about. While Twitter is a fine way to follow folks you know, there are more people that you don't know and there's a good chance they might have something to say. The folks at Twitter recently introduced the Twitter Blocks feature to allow you to do just this, but there's an easier way to explore your Twitter-hood. Once or twice a week, I glance at the replies page to see messages from folks who are following me, but I might not be following. The choice to engage in a conversation, to me, seems like the single best way to see if we have mutual interests.

So lets have an amnesty of who have you added and removed? due to noise? Sorry but I have to say it was Aral Balkan But will check it weekly to make it up sorry dude! So come on who have you had to stop following? | View count: 245
