30+ Ultimate UK Designers and Geeks on Twitter - Part 2
Posted: December 21, 2008 at 1.13 pmWRITTEN BY in Design, Social Media
So here we are, finally after a good month of posting the initial ‘Shout Out‘ for the Best UK Designers and Geeks on Twitter, this post contains a selection of the UK Tweets who submitted their details for inclusion in this Twitter list. This is not a collection I went out researching, most are all self-submitted, so I am sure many many other UK Twits are not on here. So…
…If you are not on this list and want to be added, then just add a comment below with your Bio and details, I can then add you direct to the post.

Heh, The only list I make and it’s a self submitted one - The shame of it! I think I’m worth following though, I don’t chatter much, but they’re usually nuggets.
Thanks for including me in the list Graham (can’t remember if I applied or not! :) )
Just one thing though - the link to my twitter account is wrong… should be: http://www.twitter.com/websushi_uk
