100+ Lansing Twitter accounts to consider following

August 13th, 2009
Twitter Icon

I’ve been living in Lansing for three months now. It’s been fantastic. Every day I’m blown away by the people I work with, the people I’ve met, the clients I’ve worked with, and the list goes on. From the Lansing Breakfast Club to the tweetups, it’s been a fantastic experience. Twitter has played a big role with many of the people I’ve met.

Here are my top accounts to follow in the Lansing area. If you have additional ones or don’t see your name, just leave a comment and let me know. And if you don’t know who the heck I am, come say hello, you can always find me on twitter @bugsyrocker.

P.S. Just holla’ at me if you want to be on the list. There’s no formal rules or anything bogus like that. :)

    This is quite nifty, sir. Folks that still try to tell me that Twitter is nothing but a group of recluses talking about brushing their teeth haven’t opened their eyes.

  2. woo hoo! I made the list. I feel special. Thanks Bugsy.

  3. [...] This post was Twitted by nagibenny [...]

  4. Dave Isbell says:

    Hey Justin! This is a terrific list, thanks for sharing it! I noticed alot of MSU folks on there, so feel free to add me if you want. I am the MSU Alumni Career Services Coordinator. You might also want to add @msuaajohn since he is the executive director of MSU Alumni Career Services and knows probably most of the people who are on this list!

  6. Amanda Bendrey says:

    Thanks the shout out, and for compiling this list - takes so much work out of searching for all the Lansing tweeters! :)

  7. Macie says:

    Thanks for including @GreaterLansing! Glad you’re here!

    And I hope you are enjoying the local squirrels. (And that “squirrels” doesn’t have some obscure meaning I don’t know about.)

  8. If we buy you cookies, can we get on the list?

    @Spartan_FB

    You know, for everyone who loves Michigan State pigskin.

  9. Howdy folks. Thanks for the inclusion on the list, good sir. A quick note for those that might follow:

    I’m prone to fits of textual harassment, the random jumbling together of seemingly unrelated words (including naughty words), and generally throwing around esoteric thoughts. It’s a livin’ and all.

    Just throwing that out there in case your environment dictates that that sort of stuff is not really acceptable. Also, jazzy fish!

  10. Judy P. says:

    Wow! I feel so special — and pressured to up the quality of my tweets!

  11. admin says:

    Wow! Sort of blown away by everyone’s response. Glad you enjoy the list. Maybe the next one should be in reverse alphabetical order to be fair.

  12. >> Maybe the next one should be in reverse alphabetical order to be fair.

    Assuming an ActiveRecord object that maps to a database table containing twitter users:

    Twitterers.find(:all, :conditions => ['special = ?', true]).sort_by { rand }.each do |x|
    puts “@#{x.username}
    end

    … and that’s probably why I don’t date much.

  13. Wow. That comment came out all sorts of messed up (which might also be why I don’t date much).

  14. @stevepurchase says:

    Thanks for the shout-out!

  15. @MiniJ says:

    Thanks for the inclusion. Why are some highlighted in grey? Can’t wait to follow everyone I wasn’t already!

  16. admin says:

    Links highlighted with grey are links you’ve visited already. I should change the CSS to make that a little more obvious.

  17. admin says:

    Once again, thanks for all the retweets! I’m blown away. It’s been fantastic to hear from so many people that were happy to get connected with so many other teeple here in Lansing. So keep getting connected, follow each other and let’s do some tweetups.

    Very happy to get so many people connected.

  18. Bev says:

    Hey Bugsy,

    Can I be on your list for businesses? @beverlybates

    thanks!

    Justin,

    This is an awesome list and thanks for including me in it! I would like to suggest @MattJabs to be included - he is the one who introduced me to the Breakfast Club and now I am hooked!

    You guys have an awesome office and enjoyed breakfast this morning!

    Cheers,
    Karthik
