They are good common sense ways to just be polite and respectful to your fellow Twitter users so we can all have fun. I often break the 10-per-day barrier, but am trying to keep that contained for the sanity of everyone around me. :) I think these are great, and I try to follow the same guidelines as well.

But, your suggestions above are one's that I already employ in my personal use of Twitter. These are great guidelines to use not over-annoy people who follow you or those that you follow.

Something about the sheer numbers of anonymous viewers makes me uneasy. I'll see how it goes. Ironically, I just locked mine down.

It's fabulous for conference hookups (no, not that kind, I mean dinner, drinks, hallway encounters). But, away from the conference, it becomes mundane details of people's lives, and if you're friended to people for the conference and they unfriend you when it's just details about your laundry pile, it can seem un-fun. And twitter is *all* about the fun. Anyway, I respect your twitter policy. And in this day and age of the attention economy, I think it's great you're carving out your boundaries. More people should choose a default of "off" rather than "on", imo. Including me. Twitter is an odd duck.
