I sort of discovered this when looking for interesting people that I should be following on Twitter, as I usually do, browsing through the various lists of those who follow Twitter-ers that I had already selected to follow. I noticed that birds of a feather seem to flock together, by which I mean that many seem to follow people within their own business circle.
