        Oh look, it’s one of THESE lists again.

        The last one of these I saw, I used it for an experiment. I made sure I was following the top 20, then over 10 days I looked at the kind of stuff they were tweeting, and if it was of any use and relevence (to web design/development).

        And what a surprise, most of them tweeted utter bollocks.

        Here’s my list of 5 (from your list of 50):
        @sixrevisions, @sazzy, @chrisspooner, @paddydonnelly, @boagworld.

          Agree with Jason. A lot on the list tweet merely personal things (going to make groceries, soon client meeting, highscore on game Bla and so on). Nice, but hardly useful.

          In my very humble opinion designers worth being followed:

          @netdivermag
          Mix between links and personal

          @ericsteuten
          Only tweets bout design, art, photography etc.

        Rachel- Walter Apai has never designed anything- he bought the url and spammed his way into recognition. He hires writers and knows nothing about web design himself. This is a paid placement like every other reference to him on the web.

    This list is totally incomplete – missing many important people like Ryan Carson (owner of @Carsonified), Soh Tanaka (@sohtanaka), Dan Cederholm (@simplebits) of Dribbble & SimpleBits, Molly Horzschlag (@mollydotcom), Jina Bolton (@jina) etc. and has lots of spam-filled twitterfeed people in it too.

    Dainis from 1stWebdesigner.com??

    Come on..he is just a blogger,even he is not writing anything in his blog

    You add many ”only” design blog owners not designers

    Being a web designer means something different

    Thanks for this amazing list WDL, and Mariusz. Ofcourse the list isn’t complete, nearly everyone has a Twitter account nowadays, and there are way more than 50 web designers on Twitter definitely… As said in the last paragraph ^_^

    Once again, great list! I enjoy reading what these sort of people post 😉

    What’s up with the lack of content on Web Designer Depot for the last couple of days, not to mention quality? I see typos all over this article. Copy edit! I want meaningful articles, not halfhearted lists where the only text is straight off the website being featured.
