Cyber Girl by WebWizzard Welcome back to the weekly Twitter column. Today's topic: The vanishing value of retweets due to the attack of the Twitter bots. The sheer number of retweets has become more and more pointless recently. That's a sad realization but it's true. You can get dozens of retweets just by more or less automated Twitter accounts. That's of course just half of the problem. Not only the metric "number of retweets" is worthless by now.
