Twitter ratio - restrictions?

One of my new twitter contacts mentioned that there is a 'secret twitter ratio' causing certain restrictions - but I do not really know what it means? Is Twitter restricting the amount of friends or followers? I looked for the info on different blogs writing about Twitter ratio (ratio of our Twitter followers to our friends) but I cannot see this being mentioned:/
Actually the ratio and its connection to human behaviour idea does reflect mine. I agree that some of use Twitter to chat, some to network, some to do it all and to gather knowledge.
Here's my official Twitter ratio:
To quote Scoble, I belong to those who 'want to learn more' which perfectly matches my intentions:)

I would like to know thought if there are any rules connected to the Twitter ratio which might affect my account...

Plurk, plurk, plurk

All good, we have a clone of Twitter, called Plurk and looking much more interesting - both visually, as well as functionally. I like the idea, and got me by surprise really. It's like moving from Google RSS reader to Netvibes:)All you need to do is plurk (as a non-English native I find the word hilarious in sounding by the way)

and your plurk will be 'viewable to the whole world'..hm...
I wonder what the whole world's plurk to this Plurk will be...I guess we will see in a few days to come.

Twitter ettiquette and addiction

I was just wondering - is there any? Are we expected to start following all of our followers? Is it bad if I have the same amount of followers as those whom I follow?
Honestly? I do not care. I find Twitter fun! Also I think it's a great tool to communicate new ideas, and web tools with the world, and by following web gurus I hope to learn from them.
I think I slowly start getting addicted to it. I do put 140 characters in my head even if I have no phone around to send the message off...how bizarre!  I do check it quite often and read like a book.
I am happy to see growing amount of followers and happy to find more interesting faces on-line.
I am extremely honored when someone sends me a private message saying thank you for following them.
I am annoyed if I start being followed by a 'deal' and she/he 'knows' I will read the profile, which really is a waste of time.
And time is what Twitter is all about - we can quickly update the world on, i.e. the fact we forgot the promised sweets the moment we sat down at our desk, so that colleagues do not kill us without warning;)

Anyway, it's interesting to see how Twitter, in spite basic functionalities, manages to evolve into social network.
