I’ve been messing with Twitter for some time, and now I’d be interested to follow more interesting people. I already sent an email to my mailing list that I want to follow more people. Now, I’m doing the same thing here on my blog – I’m genuinely interested about you blog readers, and want to see if Twitter can help us communicate somehow. (No idea what will happen next though).
My twitter account is: www.twitter.com/gameproducer/.
In case you’d want me to follow you, please reply me (@gameproducer) or email me (or even post a comment here on this blog entry) so that I can add you to my Twitter network.
Update: Small note, you actually must be doing something game/business related. In English.
I started coding games when I was a small kid with access to Commodore 64.

I especially like one of the comments:
“Neill Watson said…
My tip is about following.
Don’t embark on a quest to just build followers by volume. Think of them in the same way as an opt-in emaIl list of contacts you value and don’t use the automated tools out there.
I want people to follow me who are genuinely interested in me, my business and the industry I work in, not just someone looking to add to their tally and build a cool looking big number.
That way, my follow list becomes useful to others looking to see who is on my Twitter page and adds value.”
another one bites the dust
Now you’ll be replacing your blog with tweets… I complained to one of my favorite game companies for replacing their normal blogs with tweets. I blocked twitter from my place of employment and there was an uproar (also a rise in productivity).
Personally? I hate twitter.
I’m also a twitter-loather.
However, I did find a great use for it:

@CaesarsGhost: Hell no :)
I have zero plans to replace my Blog with Twitter. I don’t even see that as a possibility. Twitter lacks so many crucial things that my blog has: domain name (I own it, twitter “owns” my twitter account), long posts (twitter 140 chars only), easy comments (anybody can comment these posts, whether they have twitter or not).
I repeat: my blog is here to stay.
The reason I’m biting the dust is to see if there’s gold dust hidden there ;)
I wanna throughly test and see what twitter is about, and how things work. I thought that the easiest way to start following people is to ask you guys… since you read this :)
@psycho: I want to say that I don’t know yet what I will make of twitter (if anything). My “blind following” is actually “blindish game developer following” and I want to see what happens when there’s a bigger group.
I’m testing stuff.

I had thought you might have already followed those involved in the Nudgers experiment. Having checked and seen that you aren’t following me, I’m sharing.

I just finished installing a twitter app on my G1, normally I only lurk on this site but I’m also looking into the twitter phenomena to see what the big deal is.
I’m a CS student preparing to move to Orlando to get my masters degree as a game producer, cheers!
