Twitter Time

Just a quick post here. I'm excited to see that Chase, of Birmingham's Chase and Sam, has joined us on Twitter. If you haven't already, sign up for free, and add him as your friend (and me too of course). Also, my friend Aaron joined a few weeks ago too, and Jeremy Flint, Birmingham web designer has also returned to twittering. (Update: And now, the other half of Chase and Sam - Sam - is on twitter too.)

And after you sign up, you might want to use some software to keep track and update more easily. I use Snitter (Update: Now trying out Twhirl, which seems to be slightly nicer) on Windows; Twitterrific on OSX.

While you're at it, you might want to add some other people I follow:

Molly Wood - CNET talent
Tom Merritt - CNET talent, former TechTV guy
Jason Howell - CNET producer
David Hewlett - StarGate Atlantis "Rodney"
Jim Louderback - former TechTV guy, now CEO of Revision3
Wil Harris - geek from across the pond, TWiT regular
Chris Pirillo - former TechTV guy, known for work with mass communities
Mark Scoble - former MS employee and current blogger
Cali Lewis - high def. video blogger
Ryan Block - Engadget, also, dating...
Veronica Belmont - of CNET fame, now with Mahalo, works for...
Jason Calacanis - who was best known for Weblogs Inc.
Dave Winer - created RSS
Jimbo Wales - created Wikipedia
Amber Mac - former Canadian co-host for...
Leo Laporte - tech reporting pioneer, essential founder of TechTV. Now of TWiT.TV

PS. Of course, many of these guys are known for more things than only what I've listed, but I've kept it simple and picked out what they're probably most easily identified with.
