Uh oh. Kutcher is closing in on 4 million quicker than we’d hoped. We had 52 followers earlier this week. Apparently, the followers actually wanted quality.

This is very exciting!



this should be pretty easy to do you can do it in about an hour without following any one first.
All you have to do is go to search.twitter.com and type in new blog post, and use the reply feature to comment on peoples twitter page using @replies
most people will follow you for showing an interest in them and mentioning their tweets.
Note to self: Add item to next staff meeting agenda.
