Somehow, I've never actively followed tweets from my friends. If I happen to be online and TF/Twhirl are on and I manage to see a post that I like, I respond. The good thing, or the bad thing, is most folks I follow have posts that I do like and I respond to them in someway. > A couple of hours of reading Google Reader, Friendfeed and mailing > lists every day is more than enough for me to keep up with what is > happening with the world and my friends. > Just a couple of hours?
