The fan world is a weird and mysterious place for an outsider like me so mostly I'm just mesmerised by my niece's achievements but I agree it's disappointing when quantity is considered a merit in it's own right.....

This account had about 2000 followers, most of them similar. <br /><br />On the one hand, I get your point about Twitter being a great way to connect with people who have similar interests - starting a blog about nail art has been my way of not alienating everyone I know with my love of pretty colours - but on the other hand it annoys me that so many people adopt the face of someone famous online and are handed instant recognition and attention. It seems to look down on those of who want recognition for our own achievements rather than just jumping on the bandwagon of someone else's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
