Is there a difference between 'following' someone and being their friend?

Nope. When you follow people and vice versa, they're referred to as both your "friends" and "followers." Better than "stalkers", eh? ;)
There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people:
psychopaths and mystery writers.

I'm the kind that pays better.

Although do know that following isn't mutual. The old system saw others having to accept the friend request, while now you can follow whoever you want and they don't have to return the favour.
