I have three interesting users for this week’s Follow Friday.
Bytemonkey is an Information Technology Professional in Pensacola, Florida that has been feverishly typing code for over twelve years and fixes his friends broken computers. His tweets are the centered around many of the same concerns as other IT professionals such as dealing with a company filled with simi-computer literate workers, and does so with great tact and humor.
He also is the author of a very entertaining blog, “The Bytemonkey Chronicles”, where he writes and comments on a wide array of topics from around the Internet. Bytemonkey using the Blogger platform and as a blogger myself, I find his website and blog to be in very good taste.
This is the official Twitter account of comedian and television host Drew Carey. Yes, I enjoy his tweets, but more importantly I am on board with his cause. Drew is campaigning an effort to raise money for Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong Foundation, which is tied to cancer research. Drew has committed $1.00 USD for every follower up to 1 million followers to the foundation. So please follow Drew and spread the word about this great cause.
I follow this for the cool factor. Twisst will send you a Direct Message when the International Space Station will be in an orbit over your location. They also send tweets that are ISS and science related, but they do not smother you with tweets of when the ISS is passing over other people’s areas. So far, I haven’t been able to actually see the ISS, but when I can, I will know when.
Of course, what would Follow Friday be without a shameless plug. If you don’t already, follow me! I am @danielvining and I tweet about my daily life occurrences, tech news, and I do like to spark up conversations.
