Truly enjoyed this article. I’m new to the whole design/web development industry. One of my goals going forward is to achieve what you illustrated here. Meet individuals that will enhance my passion through their experiences, knowledge and advise.

I am a twitter convert too. Not so much the social chit chat but definitely following like-minded tweeters.

Great post. first time on your blog, I love the design. I use twitter but not for business reasons. I haven’t made a portfolio for myself yet but will use it once I set up my freelance career.

I’m still trying to get on this bandwagon called Twitter. I have a twitter page but not a lot of followers yet. I’m also trying to design twitter backgrounds for small businesses but I find people continuously skeptical about the benefits of a Twitter page. Now I have this page to send them to! Here is mine:

Hey Jared, never got a chance to say thanks for the mention! This is really a great article and an interesting perspective on how you can use twitter. Some people for get that Social networking is not just about networking but about being social.

The value of being able to communicate with like minded people is not only beneficial to business, but can enrich your life and lives of others.

Jared – I agree with you about Twitter. It’s a great way to meet people from around the world that you would not have otherwise probably met in life. I’ve met some really great people there as well.

With so many people on Twitter it’s so nice to see that you featured five of your favorite people. :-)

thanks for the great responses people. You will only serve to harm and degrade your reputation and standing on twitter if it is simply used as a self promotion tool. You should look out for others who are kind to you also and promote those things which you find inspiring and useful.
