What a nice surprise I had this morning when I checked my Twitter stream to see this wonderful #FollowFriday shout out from my fellow Twitterer, Peter Mello.

The highlighted link took me to his blog where I found the following:

First and foremost, I have to say a big THANK YOU to you, Peter. I appreciate the generous acknowledgment.

I love how you blogged about it and then tweeted it out accordingly. At times, #FollowFriday can lose it’s appeal and the meaning behind the gesture can get easily skewed for marketing and spamming purposes. You’ve rekindled my hope in the #ff movement. So thank you kindly. All of your efforts are great appreciated.

And just for the record, I’ve only tweeted 7,000+ updates. Seems Twitter’s Glitch of the Week is Update Counts Gone Wild. Okay, okay…7,000 is still excessive, but not quite as manic as 24k. *smiles*
