I've been uncomfortable with idea of using the hashtag for quite some time. Yes, it can be helpful when trying to build your social network, but as you pointed out it can also be hurtful. I much prefer the idea of adding why it is one follows another person on twitter vs. just shout outs without explanations. Easier too :-) I just feel bad when I get so many shout outs or #followfriday's from others, so in turn I return them. How does one squelch that without hurting feelings? I'm learning to just thank the person that sent it and sometimes I admit, I do hit reply because there are those who are just friends I don't see often on twitter. I have gained more followers by just being 'me.' Thanks for posting this. Excellent! I’ve been uncomfortable with idea of using the hashtag for quite some time.
