Then there are:

And probably the weirdest thing I’ve found on Twitter

he doesn’t tweet overmuch, but John Cleese is quite amusing

#47

Sockington the cat is a must, if you have a cat!! And he lives in Waltham, MA…I might have to take a ride up there sometime with food. He likes food, alot.

#48

Bring Tuna.

Do you know of any dogs who like twitter? My dogs may want to join in the fun.

#50

Good question. I haven’t seen any, but I’m sure someone’s doing it. (I wonder if Socks would accept a dog as a follower. So far it’s just cats.)

#51

There are a great number of dogs. Can I have two accounts so that my dogs can join also?

#52

I think you get one for each email address. So, if your dogs get email, they should be able to twitter. (And if not, you should work on the more basic skills with them first.)

#53

This should get you started. Look at who these follow for more.

I am now officially on “The Twitters” as UchihaDaisuke. Looks like I made it just in time for “The Revolution”. :eek:

#55

This was important, so I wanted to highlight it! There is a phishing scam on Twitter. Here’s more info:

Mac geeks will probably want to follow @Ihnatko. Especially now, as he’s apparently got some juicy info he can’t unveil just yet.

#57

Thanks, I think I may start all of the dog stuff if I can get my Ausie his own account. Some people say I must have another email address and others say no. I may just get the pup his own address. I think I will have to take dictation for him. He is not the best typist.

EDIT My dog now has his own email so I will get his account started soon.

#58

Buddytrix is my dogs twitter if you want to follow him.

#59

Yes, and there are a number of Twitter programs for Mac. I prefer TwitterPod, personally.
