Twitter n Me

I've had an off and on relationship with Twitter. I like the concept and I've met a couple of really nice people,"couple" being the operative word. I'd open my tweets and just be inundated with Just Listed tweets. That's ok I've used twitter for that as well but really I only have so many shopping dollars so why not try and get to know me if you want to sell to me? I cleaned out my following list so I can see tweets where people actually have something to say or something that interests me. I have no doubt that this will cost me a heap of followers. But hey What can you do?
