In that split second when I am deciding whether to follow someone (or click through to their web site), there are definitely certain words that I find more compelling than others. Great idea to use the same psychology to pimp our my own Twitter bio! Thanks! I can’t believe how spot on that research is!

What may seem pointless to you could be interesting to someone else- like a person who gets coffee every day at SXSW or an employee of SXSW. There are 2 things you can do- just ignore the Tweets that mean nothing to you, and concentrate on the folks who bring value to your network and converse with them. Or take a look at the person's profile and scan their Tweets- if you feel that person is a distraction and not someone you want in your network, you can easily un-follow them so you won't get their updates anymore. Hope that helps! I hear ya about the pointless Twitters…but I think these are just a part of the Twitter conversation and what makes Twitter so appealing to such a mass audience.

Even though it is just one line, you don't have to seem silly. I really think Twitter is a cool tech tool but I also really hate pointless twitters like "I am getting coffee at SXSW." How can we stop that? This is a great note – My bio was completely pointless and it could be so much better. Even though it is just one line, you don’t have to seem silly.
