Twitter is for twits.

Those are just recommendations based on who you follow, your geographical location and browsing history.

I find Twitter useful whenever a major news item is trending. The speed of information is 100x faster than what the news agencies can provide but admittedly it may not be 100% accurate.

Many politicians now link their FB accounts to Twitter and post directly to both.

i follow no one till today.... and if browsing history is used, then i don't see how it relates to that particular politician....

Twitter uses algorithms to determine what and who to follow much like how You tube suggests certain recommended channels and videos for your account.

I know 2 Liens. Both are rich men. Wonder if there are poor Liens in S'pore.
