50 Freelance Follows on Twitter



Photo by Noël Zia Lee.

Since freelancers tend to spend long hours hunched in front of a computer, it makes sense that many of them have also congregated on Twitter. Think of it as a virtual watercolor where you can chat about new projects, catch up on industry news, or just take a quick break. Some freelancers are also using the microblogging platform to find new clients and promote their business.

For those who are new to Twitter or just need some new follows, we’ve rounded up 50 users who often tweet about freelance-related topics. Not surprisingly, writers are very well represented on Twitter, but we’ve also uncovered some designers, developers, and other freelance folks. Obviously, there are many more than 50 freelancers on Twitter, so feel to leave your username in the comments.

    I found this today and thought that freelance writers could borrow an idea from it: http://twitter.com/myownadventure (great idea, by the way). Maybe you write a story, tell bits and pieces of it and have other people interact with it. Kind of a collaborative narrative of sorts.

    I tell you I’ve tried Twitter and for me it’s just a waste of time. I don’t care if you’re feeding your cat or you’ve just updated your status at BestBuy. Much better is to “follow” a good blog than to follow every little tweet. Granted, Twitter helps some, but you can’t glean much info from an SMS, and unless you are somewhat popular, it seems a waste of time to constantly tweet. I wish this Twitter hype would pass soon but alas, it has grown by over 1000% in a year. I guess there’s nothing better for them to do… My two cents.

    What a great list! I’m new to Twitter and looking for interesting people to follow. This is a big help.

    If you’re looking to follow a marketing professional starting the branding process for her own company (so much easier when it’s not your own!), I’m at http://www.twitter.com/PebbleRoad. This is my first time on the customer side…it’s already a lot like the doctor becoming the patient.

    Thanks for publishing this list. I’m certainly going to look at some of them.

    Permit me to toot my own horn. I’m a freelancer in a category not mentioned here. I provide executive I.T. oversight for companies too small to have their own CIO or companies who have only a technology-oriented I.T. manager (a systems engineer, for example). I find that many small and medium businesses are in this spot.
