I agree with iowadog
Besides, I don't know why so many people make a big deal about the number of followers they have.
It isn't about the quantity, its the quality - meaning they have to be authentic, and actually following you because they want to hear what you have to say.
Anyone familiar with Twitter knows just how quickly spam accounts start following you, that they soon can outnumber your real followers if you don't do continuous housecleaning.
