Hey Twitter power users: have you figured out what makes people follow? I see so many tweets going ultra-viral, from accounts with just a few hundred followers. I would think with many thousands of engagements more of them would convert. So if not engagement, what does work?

I'm sure for lots of people that's great. But at least for me I'm often happiest finding people who I have a hard time slotting into my pattern recognition. Not all, of course, but a lot.
Difficult to write that without it sounding like it's a bit pretentious or self-righteous. But I think it's really just a personality characteristic, not something consciously chosen.

No, not pretentious at all, I really like that kind of person too, just not sure how to signal it in 280 characters yet. When I see an uninformative bio I basically just disregard it and look at tweets or other context to decide. Hmmm.

Well, for me, "The secure transport of light" or "Fallibilist. Optimist" etc are at least 10x "Worked with Thiel on VC". I know (a) this person is an original; and (b) I have some genuine overlap in interests with them.
