Twitter: the big lie

The popularity. If you do not have it you can buy the. Or rather, it can get a vague substitute.
It works well, is simple, it is affordable for almost everyone. Also if you are so packed in grain and so ardently desirous of throwing your money in stupid hedonistic hankering that nobody will ever weight after soaking your five minutes of fame.

Jack Dorsey, founder of Twitter.
The difference until recently made her jewelry. The million-carat diamonds that glittered on the finger of a woman, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes or handbags by Jimmy Choo. For men, the difference in the eyes of a woman made her a Panda 750 CL or a Maserati.

Then came the crisis. Things started to throw some not so good 'for everyone. Certain utterances have been resized. We threw ourselves on Apple. Wearing an iPhone in 2008 in Italy was considered the sign par excellence of the new social status symbol. At the time was cool. A lot. Rimorchiavo be afraid just rubbing your fingers on the screen to unlock the device.

But then came the boom and now you see the iPhone in hand as well to kids, paid in installments with the savings of Dad. I had noticed for some time. I did not have the same charm when he was agitated under the eyes of some miss I bet. So I decided to change it with a Samsung Galaxy Notes.
Like it or not, tell you that size does not matter. But that's another story.

Arrival at the point. Now there's Twitter. The popularity is weighed in terms of followers. If you have so many cool six. If you have a few accounts is not a club. Common perception. Fact.

The VIP opening an account and splash on a day to 50,000 followers. In two days to 100,000. Then they grow to multiples of 20,000 according to their economic availability.

I tell you how it works. Many profiles are real. Most fake. Purchased in blocks of a few tens of thousands from specialized agencies who do only that. Pompano your account followers. Do not do it for free. And yet they charge a lot '.

If you want to be followed by 50,000 followers sit well. 100,000 if you want you're welcome. Just your credit card. But then do not complain if you like chatting to a ghost town. Check out the followers of the VIP. Tens of thousands of profiles that have at most three or four tweets. Follow thousands of users and are followed by barely a dozen.

I looked just now account Cucciari Geppi. 50,107 followers. Following 4. 0 Tweets. When you say, I will follow you on trust.

Yeah I know the evil they are thinking. We immediately struck down because I did not want to quarrel. I'm not VIP. I only have a blog that has earned 53 million visits and an account Twitter starts in September of 2007. It took me 3 ½ years of late nights in front of the laptop's screen to get to 44,000 followers. I also spent a lot of time to ammorbarvi with 30.200 tweets. If I had invested my time better now maybe I have a dozen bestsellers published by Mondadori. But I'll settle for small things. I prefer going out to dinner with the girls I know on Twitter. So do not even try, you censor the comments. I swear.

I'm not the only case. We are many. Grown parallel to the growth of this social network. Many came after, and they poisoned with what is pure spam.

One last thing. People are not so gullible. I tell you a couple of formulaic for the sgamare inghippi. 100,000 followers, thousands of tweets and a dozen Following is no good. 100,000 followers, 100,000 Following is no good. Make your proportions for regolarvi of when an account is real or pumped.

But if you really want your five minutes of fame, relying on the shallowness of people just based on the number of your followers, well, well throw your money buying followers.

I did not say a thing. It is a dangerous strategy. Because if Jack Dorsey and his notice it, although they are somewhat tolerant, you risk that you close the account. Forever.

At that point there will be little to do. You start over with a brand new account. 10 followers per day for the next 10 years.

After not come whining to me.

I warned you in time that the bottom is all a big lie.
