I was facebooking with a nameless colleague about finding interesting people to follow on twitter. I'm following Ashton Kutcher based on the recommendations of Television Without Pity. I also follow Ellen but she's pretty quiet. Ashton is fairly active.
Locally, I follow my friends and a few politicians. I have to admit a lot of it is ho hum. I don't care about the fact that you are heading out the door. I want the juicy details from the conversations you have. The ones that you have to stop to capture before trudging on down the block.
So who is cool to follow locally?
Woycheck is prolific.
JimLokay is good for traffic detours.
The papers are good for breaking news.
Anyone else? Suggestions? Who SHOULD be tweeting?

All three Mayoral candidates are on Twitter. Dowd is the most prolific, as well as the most personal.
You mean their staff are tweeting. Is it interesting?
Isn't it twatting?
Keith Olbermann.
I'd be surprised if Patrick Dowd wasn't Twittering personally. His posts have his style written all over them. I think he likes it.
I'd like to see the City Paper staff tweeting. Angelique and Jason? Awesome! Fran as she reviews the news? Inside scoop! Good stuff!
I can't believe there isn't any other awesome Pittsburgh twitter people. David Highfield? Sam Bennett? Tony Norman? Steelers? Penguins? Steely McBeam?
Check our Carmen Robinson's profile. She has a lot of followers and she talks about her campaign.
I have begun to tweet. Am I cool now?
If you mean that literally, you need to see a doctor. Otherwise, you can sit at the cool kids lunch table with Bram and me. And Bill Peduto.
