I follow a lot of people on twitter, not as much as some and not as little as others; at the writing of this post the number stands at 352. But that is ok because I have just as many followers: 349.
Yet it is not that easy to follow the updates of that many people (yeah and how does someone realistically follow 15000 tweeps, huh?).
Anyway of all the people I follow here are the ones I currently find most interesting (not in any order):
[just a note: I initially intended this to be a list of 10, then it evolved to 20, to be honest I could have added more (so many people are interesting), but I had to stop at some point]
- @NASA: News from NASA (especially related to space flights). How much more interesting than that? Ok maybe not for everyone, but definitely for most of the guys.
- @beaconhillnw: because he is the commenting ninja and has cool things to say
- @appleinsider: The apple rumour mill and up to date news relating to Apple – and I am like an Apple freak.
- @_South_Africa_: ummm, because I am a South African?
- @CapeTown: As I am from SA, I am from CT. A very Cool place, and this tweep has cool tweets about it
- @MyNews24: all the news from South Africa and abroad, and quite nice and casual.
- @neilhimself : Very cool auther Neil Gaiman who interacts a lot on twitter.
- @Jon_Favreau : Iron Man 2 director and he twitters – very awesome
- @problogger : Darren Rowse has great blogging and social media tips.
- @MCHammer: Interacts a lot and is very involved, pretty cool for such a high profile person.
- @tonyhawk: Yes the Tony Hawk is on twitter – but you probably already know that. Tweets a lot about, a father and very down to earth.
- @wordpress : because I use wordpress and wordpress rocks.
- @tonysteward: Tony Steward is the Online Community Pastor at LifeChurch.tv. That my friends is where it’s happening.
- @JoshDaws Christian Film Director – just what I want to be
- @worshipVJ: Stephen Proctor; Film producer, vj artist and involved in the community. Need I say more.
- @celluloidhope: David Condolora. Filmmaker with hope and has done cool videos
- @human3rror : John Saddington Also has the Twitter profile . Blogs human3rror and churchcrunch - check them out and you will know why I follow him.
- @5tu: Stu Maschwitz of prolost. Filmmaker and visual effects with great insight
- @loswhit : Carlos Whittaker of Ragamuffinsoul. Keeps it real and honest. Completely for the Lord.
- @rontuffin:Ron Tuffin, my fellow social media instigator at church and author of justplainron.

WOOT I made your top 20
well of course you did, we are the fore-runners of social media at our church – a team, why wouldn’t you be on the list

I’m your top 20?! Thanks,bro!
Thanks for the list, I follow some of those, but not all. I like it that you listed why. My new goal in life is to make your list! Thanks Phillip!

Awesome man.
I know that I follow a lot of people, but I follow strategically.
Of course there are a few exceptions (but that proves the rule right?)
Nice list. Interesting to see that your top 20 aren’t all individuals, and not just the usuals either.
I have been a big fan of @JasonSnell – Editorial Director of Macworld and @Padmasree Warrior CTO at Cisco Systems.
