Adding friends, or following people is as easy as clicking a mouse one at a time. So, the direct marketing approach is really simple. And the success rate is above 10% so far.
It's been an interesting experiment for me with just adding people for the novel "Small Places." Writing is a challenge too.
I will follow through with the project and adding/following people as I go. Will be interesting to see if people keep reading, ignore the book, or just decide following isn't in their interest.

And believe it or not, those *beep* generate an e-mail when they subscribe to me and I either follow without checking or I have to check out if they are somebody I know or I care about.
If you follow 6000+ or 3000+ ppl you have to be Robert Scoble to be able to really interact with those people. :)
If you just want attention without giving any, well, you are a spammer then.
If the success rate is 10% it is too high, more than 50% of my new followers that steal my time and grab my attention are twitterspammers at the moment.
This is why I tag you guys.
While I love literature and understand author's craving for attention (I write poetry and do experimentalö stuff occasionally myself) I still think this kind of 'marketing' is wrong.
You damage the channel and the medium you are using. You generate noise. You are a spammer. Period.
Think about it.
