The Fallacy of Social Media Reciprocation on @socialmediatoday

The post on socialmediatoday.com by Amber Naslund, VP on Social media at Radian 6 (@AmberCadabra) is all about, "you are not entitled to people follow you back just because you follow them". Twitter is not Facebook, no built in reciprocity, which I cherish. However there is a lot of peer pressure going on demanding a follow, or demonstratively unfollowing people three days when they don't get followed back.

So go ahead and resists the follow back instinct, if the person/brands stream is not relevant to you. Be egotistical. Those with relevant content will be very grateful:-)
