I really agree with you, Twitter profiles are extremely personal and one follows the user as he wants to know of that user. I am sure people would unsubscribe unless some real guru takes over the account.

Hey, if you’re going to reblog a TechCrunch article, how about a link, so we don’t have to Google it. Sheesh.

I follow that account and don’t mind staying until the new owner comes in and see what he or she will do with it.

Whoever that person is, I think the price he or she will pay will be worth it with all the publicity that it will generate after the handshake.

I have to admit… that’s pretty amazing. It’s also taking the followers for granted.

And yet someone is going to pay him for that… bizarre.

I can’t say I have had much experience with blogs or profiles changing hands in mid stream but I think it would be hard for someone to take someone else’s place. It’s the kind of thing you would see in the old media I guess but … it’s more along the lines of more than 1400 subscribers.
