My experiment:
So after 6 days and 25 posts of my stuff, I got a whole 4 'likes' from non-n3ta peeps. And those 4 likes were from accounts I don't follow, and who don't follow me.
And as I've previously said, bless yer n3ta peeps for saving ma bacon on the Twitters - you're far too kind! *MWAH* to each and every one of youse! xx
Conclusion:
Pissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
I'm going back to just following/being nosy on Twitter, now!
