Why Limit #followfriday to Friday?

Follow Friday has become one of the pillars of Twitter for many people to recognize the contributions, insight and ideas of other people on Twitter.

It’s rooted within the “virtuous economy” in which the “work” of other people is rewarded/compensation by putting them in the spotlight. It’s a public pat on the back for a job well done.

One of the challenges of Follow Friday (aka #followfriday) is keeping track of who to recognize. After a busy week, it can be difficult to remember the people on your Follow Friday list. As a result, you may end up scrambling to do it, or not do it all.

While you could write down the people you want to highlight on Follow Friday, another approach is simply doing it through the week. Why stick to Follow Friday when you could do Follow Monday or Follow Thursday? If you really want to publicly note people making a contribution do it when you want rather than waiting for Friday.
