"Who do you follow?" is one of the most common catch phrases in the world these days. Following, in this case, doesn't correspond with waiting in line or driving your car behind. "Who do your follow?" relates to the Twitter users you chose to accept content from and read their 140 character submissions.
The users I follow on Twitter are a mix of friends, family, journalists and celebrities. Their tweets are serious, educational, entertaining and sometimes down-right silly. Here are 12 users I
follow, that you should check out as well.
