		<description>Hi lovely!  Read Gerald&#039;s comment...you don&#039;t have to do anything. It&#039;s your own experience. :) And, may I say I am thrilled that I&#039;ve met you as part of my experience on Twitter :) I LOVE the flock of birds analogy and I&#039;m gonna tweet it! ;-) It reminds me of the saying, something like:  The bird sings not because he has an audience, but a song in his heart. Thank for your comment and your friendship/support.  Keep singing! xoxoxoxo Gina  </description>

		<description>Thanks so much fellow G! I love your points and contribution (from a Giant in many aspects!)  So true...who are we to say how to tweet properly?  I do think guidelines and suggestions and thoughts on one method/m.o. or another are always helpful.  Heck, aren&#039;t I about to post one on your blog? haha ;) I love the comment that following someone on Twitter &quot;is an opt in process&quot;. Simple and strong truism, that! We need to remember that. I see why you&#039;ve attracted an impressive following. Happy tweeting! Cheers, G-Girl lol  </description>

		<description>lol, I never knew you were supposed to acknowledge retweets... i love retweeting good quotes, don&#039;t really care where they come from.  if anyone has retweeted me, I don&#039;t know about it.  I think Twitter is like a flock of birds, all tweeting.  Do birds pay attention, or do they just sing?  Who knows... it&#039;s fun anyway.</description>

		<description>SuuperGforce, 
 
Excellent post. 
 
I think the most important thing for people to bear in mind is that people tweet differently and some peeps have a different style than others. 
 
I used to write posts about &lt;a href=&quot;http://sem-group.net/search-engine-optimization-blog/10-twitter-commandments/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;How to use Twitter properly&lt;/a&gt; etc but as time went on I started to realize more and more that different people use Twitter differently and it&#039;s best for people to find their own way (own personal style) that works for them. 
 
And another simple point for people that complain about ting like &quot;he or she @replies too much&quot; or &quot;He is she tweets too much&quot; if you don&#039;t like someones style of they way they tweet etc. The unfollow button is just a click away. 
 
I personally rarely unfollow someone because it seems to be a bit antisocial to me but the point is following someone is an opt in process. So people shouldn&#039;t complain about the way someone else tweets. Just unfollow if you don&#039;t like it. </description>
