Are you following someone on social media sites?

1 Answer

Answer :

I think I clicked to follow some people on Twitter, but I have no idea how that’s working, because I log onto Twitter about three times a year. I know a couple were to be able to comment on their page, or whatever it’s called. One was Katie Couric, another few were friends of mine. I don’t remember who else. When I first joined fluther I selected jellies to follow. I haven’t added more in years. I wonder if I should look at that?
