Follow Friday - what's it all about?

Follow Friday is a way of recommending people you follow to other people in your sphere of influence. Recommendations take away the pain and gives everyone the chance to give their friends a chance to interact with more people.

Instead of just tweeting a list of people to follow, give a short description of why you think they are of intersts to others, whether it be their niche, that they are nice, that they live in Paris, whatever, just put context around why you are recommending them.

This concept was started by Micah Baldwin as a way to allow the "little guys" to get exposure. You can read about it here.

There is also a website where you can see the real-time stream of Follow Friday, that is, anyone putting #followfriday in their tweet.
