Twitter: Do you tweet celebrities?

I expanded the list of people I follow  on  twitter lately, not being as strict about who I followed as before. I mean twitter can help you expand your social networking from the usual blogger types and tech nerds of the internet. But there is another – well established class of people using twitter, they hail from a land ‘Far Far Away’, aka the land of celebrities, who have invaded twitter in the past year or so. And where there are celebrities there will be hangers on!

What I have noticed is there is a large amount of people sending tweets to celebrities, fruitless tweets that are never answered or acknowledged. In the celebrities defence they often have thousands of followers so how could they answers every one.

Even worse I noticed people having one ended conversations with celebrities. Twitter is all about joining in the conversation, but is there a point of constantly tweeting celebrities when they never answer?

Without debating the reasoning behind this utter madness, I give you today’s poll.
