Serious question.

For MOST people here, the idea of twitter is to promote your site to consumers, right? OK.

Now you know your timeline gets content from all the people you follow, right? So your potential customers read your twitter timeline and also see all the tweets from all the people you follow? Right? OK.

So WHY THE FUCK do you all want to follow each other's B2C twitter spam?

Seriously, why?

The more B2B you fill your stream with, the more chance one of your followers will fuck off to someone else site to buy.

I just have no clue as to why you all do this, all the time? Can someone explain what I'm missing?

Does a forum for plumbers have them all following each others plumbing spam tweets?
