Comments on: Flipping the Bird at Follow Friday http://www.popkultr.com/2009/07/10/flipping-the-bird-at-follow-friday/ a whole lot of pop, just a little bit of culture Fri, 10 Jul 2009 20:27:38 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8 hourly 1 By: @mattstratton http://www.popkultr.com/2009/07/10/flipping-the-bird-at-follow-friday/comment-page-1/#comment-4 @mattstratton Fri, 10 Jul 2009 20:27:38 +0000 http://www.popkultr.com/?p=102#comment-4 I agree wholeheartedly about the influx and firehose of #followfriday...I've started to do one, single, specific recommendation every Friday under the hashtag of #3F (for <a href="http://mattstratton.com/2009/06/10/fussy-follow-friday/" rel="nofollow">Fussy Follow Friday</a>). It is also tied back to a blog post that explains WHY I suggest following that person. What's interesting is that if you go back to the origins of #followfriday, it was never intended to be a massive dumping ground as it has become. It was supposed to be targeted and an actual recommendation system, which, of course, the mass population has completely perverted. Good job, mass population.
