"Good people to follow" is fairly subjective. For me I follow basically two types: those in my field, and locals. A sprinkling of newsy types and geeky celebs.
I've been on Twitter a while. It's been good at expanding work connections. I even just had a new coworker spend a couple nights at my place while she waits for her apartment to be ready. I met this woman on Twitter via another user that (at the time) I didn't know IRL.
As for it being like Facebook; I know everyone on my Facebook page. I know a fraction of the people I follow/am followed by on Twitter. In fact those I know IRL tend to use it the least. My audience is different for both which is one reason I choose not to feed my tweets to FB.
Anyone attend tweetups or twestivals in your towns? I've been going regularly since February though I feel like the odd one out since most others attending are geeky guys (ok, I'm geeky, but not like that).
