Over the past couple of weeks, I've been 'getting into' Twitter. I signed up for a Twitter account over 6 month and initially thought Twitter was a waste of time! But I recently gave it another try and have started to enjoy Twitter because I've found people on Twitter who share similar interests that I do. So, today I'm going to share with you a list of over 30 Joomla users, developers and bloggers who are on Twitter! What is Twitter?Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service, that allows users to send and read other people's updates (read more about Twitter on Wikipedia). Because Twitter is a social network, your enjoyment of it will be determined by who you interact with. Are the Joomla crowd on Twitter?Yes, quite a few people from the Joomla crowd are on Twitter! I've compiled a list* of people and organisations from the community that I've spotted using Twitter. Here they are in no particular order:
If you're already using Twitter, you can use this list to interact with other Joomla users by following them. If you're a Joomla user but don't use Twitter yet, why not sign-up today, follow the guys above and start Twittering! *We're sure we will have missed people off this list, so please contact us or leave a comment and let us know who we should be add to the list. What do you think?Do you think Twitter is a waste of time, or a useful social networking tool? Comments (21)

We just launched CMS Expo here in North America (coming to a continent near you soon) and Twitter went abuzz with commentary about our amazing list of instructors ( a "who's who" list which has many of the folks you listed above).

You will find a long list of Joomla heads at http://twittgroups.com/group/joomla and it's growing all the time.

Great list! Thank you for taking the time to create it. It's always nice with a "manually created" list, sort of a quality check making it easier to sort through.

David - thanks for the article and the list.

Thanks for the article and the link, David! It's an excellent idea, too, because I have been looking for other tweeple to follow.

"If your competitors are using Twitter then why aren't you?" was a question I asked myself some weeks ago and so I decided it was best to setup a channel for the business and also a personal account to test things out first. And therein lies a good reason: Twitter is another channel for you to communicate as an individual, a group or a business.
