Glorified RSS Out of 121 131 accounts, lately 16 17 19 24 do something other than consistent as a fake RSS be nourished. You can comprehend the resounding victuals here. The other 107 do no retweeting, no replying to other tweets etc.
No following. (The 24 are the ones with a unmannerly training in their URL and a yes in the persist column). by They don’t do much following. Are newspapers bringing their no-linking-out access to Twitter? Or is it lately because they’re pumping RSS feeds hetero to Twitter, and consequently comprehend no defence to grab with the community?
