What the Ellen’s going on?
I had a bit of of a shock this morning when I discovered @TheEllenShow had started following me on Twitter. Why on earth would Ellen DeGeneres, comedian and talk show host, be following me? This piqued my interest, so I went to find out why.
At the time of writing, Ellen has over 3.6 million followers, and follows under 7,000 people. I checked her following list and discovered that the names of the most recent people followed are all non-profit and social good types. Now, I can only speculate as to why this is, and hopefully I’ll get to find out the real reason soon.
Here’s my theory: she’s following the social good and non-profit types to draw attention to them in some way. Perhaps she’ll be telling her Twitter followers and people who watch her show that those she does follow are making a difference in the world due to their work. I guess we’ll just have to wait to find out!
