I would like to hear quality PG essays, or rather similar new content condensed to Twitter format.

- andrewljohnson 17y ago@shitmydadsays is my favorite twitterer :) I also like @kurt_vonnegut... he is a bot my friend set up that tweets quotes from the dead author. Other good people are @ev, @kn0thing, @raganwald, @jwc, @jeresig... people you might expect would be good. @kn0thing keeps me on top of my reddits :)
