If you use Twitter at all, you’ll know that when you
follow a lot of tweeters they send you an automated “Thanks for following me”
Direct Message (DM).
Usually it includes an invitation to go to their website,
Facebook page or some other so you can buy their product or service. It’s
essentially as meaningful as a commercial on any basic cable TV channel; the
appearance instead of the substance of engagement.
But here’s one I found kind of interesting:
Apparently my new bestie Hans (whom I only followed
because he followed me and when I checked his profile he didn’t look like a
spammer or someone wholly devoted to selling crafts) does not see the irony in
using a DM to tell me he doesn’t respond to DMs.
