 Here are some examples of who I follow on Twitter and why. I'd love to hear your recommendations, too. My personal but business-oriented approach to Twitter is spelled out in these recent posts ("4 Annoying Twitter Myths about How to Use Twitter" and "Twitter Gurus Please Stop Whining").If you're one of the many people who read, commented on, or retweeted those posts, you'll probably like following some of the Twitterati I follow, too.
 If you agree with my approach or these people listed below as good role models for your own tweeting, please let me know in the Comments below or by following me on Twitter.com.
 Share Your Twitter Handle, too.If you'd like to join the party, please leave YOUR twitter user name (like @scott_fox) below in the Comments, PLUS the Twitter user name of ONE friend you recommend.
 Please also include a sentence or two about WHY you recommend that person - we're not auto-following here! [Hat tip here to Liz Strauss, Darren Rowse, and Jack Humphrey.Â
Last summer these leading bloggers all posted their own lists of social media blogs. Those posts inspired this "twitter love-in" today.]
