Keeping up with your favorite brands, and if you’re a nerd geek like myself, your favorite tech news are just two of many different ways to utilize the increasingly-popular social network, Twitter.
For the latter and the former, one of the best ways to keep up is to follow the employees of your favorite news-makers… to get an insight into what’s currently happening at the companies for which they work.
Take Microsoft for example. As you might expect, there are a ridiculous number of Microsoft employees currently tweeting their thoughts and insights relating to their daily work. I stumbled upon a compiled listing of Microsoft Twitter users a while back on RedmondPie.com but that site has since gone inactive. Fortunately, I discovered a cached version of the page. So, here’s a listing (incomplete, I’m sure) of MS Twitter-users:
