Are there professionals in your field who do really interesting or leading stuff? Start with them. People doing outstanding stuff in your areas of interest? Follow them. Just Google search their name + "Twitter". I also recommend @newsyc20, @newsyc100, & @newsyc300 for following Hacker News. @newsyc20 is a good filtered down version of the main list (2-5 tweets / hr) @newsyc300 will let you know the most popular topics (2-5 / wk) I generally don't follow friends on Twitter. It's mostly professionals who don't talk too much so the info remains relevant. I also keep a feed window open on my desktop...
