Getting involved with Twitter

I am not a huge fan of Twitter, seeing it as a massive time-sink, but I decided that I should develop some contacts and connections in the social media world outside WDC.  With a bit of effort, it is pretty easy to get to know people and develop a following as well as develop a group of people to follow.  I started on April 9th, ten days ago, and I now follow 297 people, have 135 followers, am on 10 lists and have tweeted 186 times.  If you are interested in how I accomplished that in ten days, I'd be happy to share, but I doubt the experience is for everyone.  It is still an enormous time-sink.
