37 People You Should Follow for Infographics on Twitter


[The Visual Guide to Twitter is from Applicant.com]

If you don't already follow me on Twitter, I'm rtkrum.  I post links to all of the Cool Infographics posts, and hold a few side conversations with people there.  I don't know how some people keep track of following thousands of people, but TweetDeck has become an indispensable tool for me.  The main reason is that I can create groups among the people I follow and of course I keep an infographic group.

Instead of featuring an infographic today, I thought I would embrace the Twitter tradition of Follow Friday and share the list of people and companies I follow related to infographics.  So here is my list of who to follow for infographics on Twitter (in alphabetical order):

Ben_Fry
Choreographics
Datamarket
DataVis
DaveGray
EagerEyes
Ethel_Baraona
Five15Design
FlowingData
GOOD
iA
infobeautiful
Infographic
InfoJocks
InfoShots
Infosthetics
Infoviz
Jess3
LifeAnalytics
Matthewhurst
Mibi
MikeWirth
Mslima
Neal_Levene
OmniGraffle
OpenRoadMaps
RaayaDesign
SND09
TeamSwivel
TimePlots
VisualThinkMap
VISup
Vizeds
VizThink
VizWorld
Xplane

I know I have to be missing some, so that's the selfish part of this request.  Who else do you follow?

    Datavis, I'd love to see a list if you have more...

    I am sending you links on the newly expected Trend Compass which is still in our Lab.

    I hope you could evaluate it and give me your comments. So many ideas are there.

    You can test the software by uploading data on our website and getting the corresponding Flash charts.This is for a limited number of users. You can also download a trial version. It has a feature to export EXE,PPS,HTML and AVI files. The most impressive is the AVI since you can record Audio/Video for the charts you create.
