		<description>Kevin, 
 
Thanks for the feedback. I think Mr. Tweet is off to a solid start, and I agree with your assessment that it will get better in times. I followed a few new people but, like you, many of the recommendations I had seen before. </description>

		<description>I, too, like the promise of Mr. Tweet, but it has not yet added anything to the Twitosphere in terms of functionality. There are a number of other follow network tools and user rank metrics that are at least as beneficial, even if the presentation is not up to Mr. Tweet&#039;s level. 
 
The strengths of the tool so far are the visual look and the common-sensical interpretation of user tendencies, of the things people use to evaluate whether or not to follow someone. However, my initial lists weren&#039;t at all useful. 
 
On the one hand, I could look at a list of people I am not following in return. For whatever reasons, I have already done some assessment and determined not to follow them. Everyone has their algorithm for this and most get notifications to know when someone is following. At the moment, I&#039;m not looking toward expansion, but when I do reviewing my own network is the first step. Maybe then that part of Mr. Tweet will have value. The second list is people I should be following, which in my initial update was purely the same regurgitated list of uber-users who already had a large following in other social networks and benefit from that here.  
 
Both of these things are known commodities to most people who pay attention to their networks and have been using Twitter. The real benefit is probably for the newer users who may not have seen these names before, but even so many of the celebrity accounts aren&#039;t going to be able to engage a given person in the same way as users more on one&#039;s own level and context. I&#039;m not willing to browse through pages to find those gems. 
 
My expectation is that Mr. Tweet will improve its understanding of me and be able to allow the more relevant and useful information about other Twitter members to rise to the surface. There are scalability issues that are preventing rapid iteration of these lists, so I am anxious to see if my next update improves in this area. 
 
The other major strength of Mr. Tweet is their outreach. They embraced GetSatisfaction quickly, seeking people out for input by direct message, posts and email. I think this is what gives them their biggest edge, long-term, over other follow net managers. </description>
