6 People that Should be on Twitter

Sara Rosso, digital strategist (@rosso) and When I Have Time fantasizes on who she’d like to see on Twitter in this guest post.

On Twitter, we have the real Shaq (@THE_REAL_SHAQ), the fake Shaq (@NotShaqONeal), and we’re inundated by Tweets from Mr. (@aplusk) & Mrs. (@mrskutcher) Kutcher, but who would we really like to see using Twitter?

@GeorgeWBush

Now that he’s officially not a president anymore, we’re going to miss some of those great soundbites. I also think W would enjoy Twitter. He’s used to the secret service doing everything for him, but I think Twitter could be a good replacement for some of those tasks:

Top Ten Must Follows – Writers, GTD/Productivity and Moms

With millions of Twitter users out there – it can at times be challenging to find those in your niche and with shared interests. So last weekend I challenged readers of TwiTip to come up with their own ‘Top 10 Twitter Users’ in different topics.

What followed was quite extraordinary with 147 people submitting their own lists – each on different topics. I actually was quite inspired by the variety of topics mentioned as I watched the lists come in over the last week.

There are topics being written about that I didn’t even imagine that there would be present on Twitter (although I should have).

Over the coming weeks I’m going to feature some of these ‘Top 10 Lists’. I’m doing it in the hope that it’ll highlight the variety of what Twitter is being used for, in the hope that it’ll help people to find others with common interests and to hopefully give you all a little inspiration to come up with your own Top 10 list for a topic that you are passionate about (submit it in the comments on this post).

Here are just 3 of the lists submitted so far.

10 Must Follows on Twitter for Writers

@mikecane submitted these people all writers should Follow:

10 GTD Productivity Twitter Users

@edragonu suggested 10 people and services to follow on twitter for those interested in GTD (getting things done) or productivity

10 Women/Mom Bloggers who Twitter

@sarahsingforhim suggested 10 Twitter users in the Women/Mom blogging world to follow

Of course these kinds of lists can be debated on and one – but if you’re not in complete agreement with them – feel free to come up with your own and submit it here.
