Mind blowing tweets

3 pointshackaflocka9 comments

Who are some people to follow on twitter who only pump out mind blowing tweets? The subjects I'm interested in include - coding - startup scene - entrepreneurship - science - design and type - solar, bio and health tech - spirituality

My experience has been that many people tweet out mind blowing stuff once in a while, but also pump out lots of drek (e.g. one has to be a bystander to their conversations with people). I want to avoid this. I'm looking for people who only pump out one-way traffic of mind blowing stuff. The closest I've found anyone to this ideal is @levie.

Not sure if 100% of their posts are mind blowing. It's hard to dispense much business wisdom via a Twitter feed. Still, you can learn a lot from them, especially if you follow the links they recommend. My favourite is at the top:

David S. Rose @davidsrose Venture capitalist, entrepreneur, angel investor

Jeff Bussgang @bussgang Former entrepreneur turned VC at Flybridge Capital

Fred Wilson @fredwilson I am a VC

I'd also suggest to read through David Rose's replies on Quora. Very thoughtful

I agree about @davidsrose -- he loves to teach and share knowledge.

@Ramit (of I Will Teach You To Be Rich fame)

@alexisohanian (Reddit Co-founder)

@brennandunn (Planscope)

@GSElevator (Hardly mind blowing but amusing)

@thestartupspace (Swedish Startup Space, a blog but puts out good content, but I am biased towards Swedish tech stories)

That is all I could think of right now. You could always follow me(@Chronoo) but I doubt you would get any mind blowing tweets ;).

Thanks -- upvoted you and followed @ramit .

Is it because they tweet links to interesting stories? Otherwise how is it possible to learn something worthwhile from 120 char messages? It's hard for me to fathom how a text so short could be "mind blowing."

It is possible for a 140 character message (tweet) to be "mind blowing", that's the reason twitter is so popular, isnt it ?

Some people like large tomes. Others like pithy aphorisms. We all have our different ways to learn.
