Twitter has another interesting innovation that they have launched.

Websites the user or his friends visit in the Twitter ecosystem. as well as websites on the internet that have Twitter buttons or widgets. Information from these buttons can be used to determine which buttons and widgets are getting tweeted and followed a lot. These accounts that have been gaining a large number of followers in the last 10 days can be used as a suggested person or account to follow.
Another smart move by Twitter is the offering of 'Do not track'. With do not track turned off - you can be assured that Twitter will not be following your activity and everything gets turned off. This is one of the privacy options to be kept in mind if you do not want Twitter keeping a track of all your actions in the Twitter ecosystem
