I had just about given up on Twitter for the 2nd time. My tweets have been inconsitent and lame (though not inconsistently lame) and I’ve generally found little value. Though I do know the exact travel schedule of many a branding exec. Which is obviously helpful.
Then I came across Lee Clow’s Beard. It’s a steady flow of insight of the “wish I said it that way” variety. Today’s: “Most people don’t have enough time to interact with their kids, let alone your brand. Respect that.”
Who on Twitter do you find uniquely worthwhile?

Hi Matt – I, too, am a Twitter newbie, and it certainly is a challenge to get a grasp. Having fun exploring the whole thing, haven’t found anyone incredible to follow just yet, but looking forward to exploring Lee’s beard.

ps – now please get on Facebook, wouldya?
This is great. Anyone else have good stuff to follow?
I follow and have followed a number of Adobe developer groups for Flash, Flex, After Effects, etc… Sometimes they are real Adobe employees (like @esulliva) that share links to tutorials and resources. I find those worthwhile.
Glenn – with each week, my resolve to hold out against facebook grows stronger. short of a personal plea from zuckerberg, i’m on the sidelines!
I too found Lee Clow’s Beard, shortly after I decided to give in and sign up for Twitter. My response was exactly the same.
One of my favorites: “Don’t confuse tools with strategies. (cough) SEO optimization. (cough) Twitter. (cough cough)”
SamanthaToy finds some pretty cool design goods. coolhunting is at the intersection of art, design, culture and technology. And of course, for the celebrity scene, Danny_DeVito is out and about travel-tweeting about his day-to-day (sometimes moment-to-moment).
of course, fishingpoet is a good bet too…
Thanks fishingpoet – i’ll try those out, including fishingpoet.
