It’s obvious Twitter’s suggested user feature is not so great because it knows nothing about your interests. Below is a list of people I currently enjoy following because they have many years of experience in the digital marketing, advertising, social media, and mobile industries (all Screen shot 2009-09-17 at 9.35.10 PM‘d by me). If you have similar interests, you should be following them too.

Check it out and maybe create a list of your own. If you do, please send me the link or consider tagging it with the hashtag #mysuggested. It doesn’t matter what day you do it.

I haven’t been a huge fan of Follow Friday lately because 140 characters simply isn’t enough. Many people send out several tweets in a row with just @usernames – who actually clicks through to each? In a blog post, you have the freedom to include as much info as you want and you can update it as often as you want as things change.
