It is no secret that I am a big fan of Twitter. The service has completely changed the game for obtaining real-time information. When something happens around the world….get on Twitter and watch the madness ensue.

Here are 10 people that I follow and suggest you do too. Each one brings unique perspectives and humor to my daily review of Twitter. Most even respond if you contribute to the conversation!
