   Thanks, this is great. WordPress really does have a great community, although I have noticed there is the ‘inner circle’.

   Great list, I’m always looking for more people to connect with especially in the wordpress family. I spent most of my day today working on a wordpress theme.

   I’m @waynesutton on twitter and I love wordpress.

   Thanks

   Oh and I’d add noted plugin guru Alex King to the list, twitter.com/alexkingorg

   Twitter is something of an anomaly to me. I really don’t see the purpose behind it when so many of us have been using other technologies like IRC for 15+ years. Twitter, in my opinion, is nothing more than a partial extension of technologies we already have.

   That said, for anyone that’s really interested in keeping on top of the seemingly constant changes within the Twitter and social media sector, you might consider following Corvida at SheGeeks.net.

   Hmm, I wish ryan boren was up there. My only problem is that Ms. Mayo twitters too much and it blocks out the other people.

   That and I really couldn’t care less about twitter. I’m on it once every week, two weeks? Some people might say something interesting, but I doubt it.

    thanks for the list; you may consider updating http://twitterpacks.pbwiki.com/ twitter packs wiki, which lists twitter users by themes (not wordpress themes :), well… different categories; see fo yourself; rgds, @wembley

    I wondered why I had a bunch of new followers… I thought I was being Twitter spammed. Thanks.
12. Brent Ozar (1 comments.) says:

    6/4/2008 at 9:39 pm

    You should clean up that list to only include people who are, like, you know, actually Twittering. I clicked on Andy Skelton out of curiosity, and he’s had a grand total of 11 tweets in the year 2008. Come on, help us help you….
13. Ian Stewart (28 comments.) says:

14. Thaya Kareeson (51 comments.) says:

    Thank you for sharing Jeff. I’m new to the WordPress community, but this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. My Twitter username is “thaya” if anybody would like to follow some of my plugin development work and WordPress hacks.
15. Claudia J. (2 comments.) says:

    6/4/2008 at 10:31 pm

    I’d add http://twitter.com/teli to your list. She’s the one who writes the optiniche blog and she’s my go to girl for all things WordPress.

    I have a small question, which somebody might be able to answer. Can I attach my rss-feed to Twitter, so it is published there? If so, how?
33. Doug Stewart (9 comments.) says:

    I’m on there as well as zamoose.
34. David (1 comments.) says:

    6/5/2008 at 11:22 am

    The answer, Manuel, is yes. Check out Twitterfeed.com to tie your RSS feed to your Twitter account. Great list, I think I am following some already. You can find my tweets on DC, politics, PR and general life events at http://www.twitter.com/almacy.

    Nice trustworthy list. Although, having 31 people twittering in my ear, is bound to drive my incredibly low productivity to even lower levels. How do tweeters manage to get any work done? I must just be a lousy multi tasker.

49. Noel Jackson (3 comments.) says:

    6/9/2008 at 12:41 am

    Wow, a really great list of people to follow.

    I’ve worked on quite a few wordpress themes, including the new .com monotone photoblogging theme. I’m @noel over on twitter.

    Aside: I’m slightly disappointed with the community building aspect of Twitter. I think Plurk might be headed in a nice direction. I’m noel over there too.

    awesome! love wordpress and twitter. Definitely going on my follow list. here are my twitter accounts: http://www.twitter.com/hey1tsjenny & http://www.twitter.com/misschicgeek

    WordPress totally helped me setup my sites in no time. In case you’re curious:
    http://www.misschicgeek.com
    http://www.jenny-huang.com

    Both sites are definitely still work-in-progress
51. Raul (1 comments.) says:

    6/9/2008 at 4:39 am

    My blog is pretty personal (and somewhat Vancouver-centric), but I do have a couple of friends who are WP developers (and they are included in this list of yours) whom I follow, so you might see a couple of familiar faces on the list of people whom I follow.

    I also find it somewhat self-absorbed to self-promote, but here is my Twitter in case anyone wants to follow me Raul – apparently I am the top Twitterer in Vancouver, Canada (or so says TwitterLocal.net).

    My blog “Random Thoughts of a Student of the Environment” started as a Blogger blog and now is fully WordPress. So, as I told Lloyd Budd one day, “I am a WordPress boy all the way”. On my blog you can find a couple of WordPress-related links, including a live-blog of WordCamp 2008.

    This may be elementary but I’m a newbie: I have a website built on a WordPress platform with a WordPress them I love. However, the home page disappeared on me and I cannot find it for the life of me to add new content. In essence, I don’t have a landing page. Disaster. Help! Please!

    Using WordPress template for my website that has some funkiness and I cannot figure out how to fix it. Problems like “posted by ” and my name at the top of each page on static website, extra little German thingies at the bottom. You can tell I’m not a techie. Twitter: @kathleensbarnes
