The fact is, active Twitter users are not aware of lurkers. You are not disliked. You lurk as long as you feel like it, on Twitter as well as any social networking portal, until you get the idea of what goes on. Get your legs under you, have something to say, then when the time is right, speak up. If anyone gives you grief about lurking, tell them where to stick it. Sure, if you're using Twitter for profit, then time is money. But it's not lurking if it's learning. Oh, and also, point #5: once you start on Twitter, don't expect anyone following you to respond to your inquiries for the first few months. Apparently, you have to be "somebody" on Twitter for people to give you a hand. Why? I don't know. Them that has gets, I guess. I have a big problem with Li Evans’ point #4.
