Actually, I don't even pay any attention to #followfriday mentions anymore. If you like someone, why wait till friday to recommend him?

I like the idea of blogging the people we recommend for sure. I'm not into always recommending peeps on Fridays - it gets tiring to "have to do" it. I like to be free to recommend when I feel like it. I'm very much into letting things flow naturally..... I always thank everyone that recommends me though :-) All the best, Eren .-= Eren Mckay´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.embracinghome.com/how-make-homemade-eggnog/">How to Make Homemade Eggnog Recipe</a> =-.

I really enjoy #FF (#ff #followfriday) and I usually list my favorites on complete randomness as people are tweeting while I am making my list. I like to send out #FF this way because: 1. They are on twitter and will see I sent out some #FF love while I am on twitter. 2. I can see what they are tweeting about so I make sure I don't recommend "teeth whitening" or "make money on twitter" bots. 3. I use seesmic and tweetdeck so it is easy to create my lists on the fly by clicking the @reply button as their tweets flow through my stream. Also, I send out #FF recommendations for a lot of the same tweople every week, especially ones that actually interact with me through @replies. .-= Keith @ Superior Fence Products´s last blog ..<a href="http://buy-fence.com/vinyl/vinyl-vs-wood-fencing/">Vinyl Vs Wood Fencing</a> =-.

I really appreciate it! #1 I love Mr. Tweet too. I use it for all my #FF recommendations now. Just one person per tweet along with a reason, plus they are added to their website. #2 I haven't marked a single tweet. That is such a great idea. I think I will adopt that one. #4 I've thought of doing this several times, but never followed through. Another one I think I will adopt. Thanks for the helpful suggestions.
