The MD of our company said to me recently : how come only 900 people follow us when our rival has 5,000. I replied by showing him the Tag cloud from Twittersheep.com showing our cloud with lots of relevant words and our rival's with a bunch of irrelevant terms (mainly people looking for free items which our rival gives away every now and then). From this I suggested we have quality, if not quantity, of followers. This year I think is going to be about that quality over quantity debate. Last year it was about "how many followers you have; let's get more" whereas this year it's gong to be about getting the right followers. I think you'll see a lot more people (like Econsultancy did last week) slash the number of people they follow because you simply can't follow 30,000 people. In fact, I think anything more than 200 is a struggle. Just my hunch. I also like Twittersheep.com

Some people tweet good stuff but also tweet unuseful stuff and I sometimes get rid of that ending in me unfollowing them.
