			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you on Twitter? Share some cool people to follow. </p>
<p>I like Musab (<a href="http://twitter.com/musabb">@musabb</a>) - he twitters exclusively in haiku <img src='http://talkislam.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> If you&#8217;re really into haiku on twitter, you&#8217;ll need to follow  Haiku Twaiku (<a href="http://twitter.com/haikutwaiku">@haikutwaiku</a>), but they updated a bit too often for me, I just use <a href="http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23haiku">#haiku</a> to get my fix as needed instead. There&#8217;s also Twitter Lit (<a href="http://twitter.com/TwitterLit">@twitterlit</a>), which only posts the first line of novels. </p>
<p>There are some interesting &#8220;utilities&#8221; on twitter, ranging from weather (<a href="http://twitter.com/Forecast">@Forecast</a>), to do lists (<a href="http://twitter.com/rtm">@rtm</a>), and even tracking your gas mileage (<a href="http://twitter.com/fuelfrog">@fuelfrog</a>). </p>
<p>Twitter is also a handy source of news - you can get breaking news from CNN (<a href="http://twitter.com/cnnbrk">@cnnbrk</a>) or international news headlines from Al Jazeera English (<a href="http://twitter.com/AJEnglish">@AJEnglish</a>). I also rely on News Junkies (<a href="http://twitter.com/newsjunk">@newsjunkies</a>) for politics headlines and Tech Junk (<a href="http://twitter.com/techjunk">@techjunk</a>) and Read/Write Web (<a href="http://twitter.com/rww">@rww</a>) for tech news. I&#8217;m also a fan of China Web 2.0 Review (<a href="http://twitter.com/cwr">@cwr</a>) and Malaysia Matters (<a href="http://twitter.com/malaysiamatters">@malaysiamatters</a>).</p>
<p>Of course, the punditocracy is well-represented as well. In politics, there&#8217;s The Politico (<a href="http://twitter.com/thepolitico">@ThePolitico</a>), Joe Trippi (<a href="http://twitter.com/JoeTrippi">@JoeTrippi</a>), Patrick Ruffini (<a href="http://twitter.com/PatrickRuffini">@PatrickRuffini</a>), Joshua Trevino (<a href="http://twitter.com/jstrevino">@jstrevino</a>), and Marc Ambinder (<a href="http://twitter.com/marcambinder">@marcambinder</a>). On the tech side, there&#8217;s Robert Scoble (<a href="http://twitter.com/Scobleizer">@Scobleizer</a>), Dave Winer (<a href="http://twitter.com/davewiner">@davewiner</a>), Mike Arrington (<a href="http://twitter.com/techcrunch">@techcrunch</a>), and Michael Parekh (<a href="http://twitter.com/MParekh">@MParekh</a>). You can also follow Lawrence Lessig&#8217;s new organization, Change Congress (<a href="http://twitter.com/change_congress">@change_congress</a>). </p>
<p>There are also a lot of simply interesting people and celebrities on Twitter. For example, Muhammad Saleem (<a href="http://twitter.com/msaleem">@msaleem</a>), Om Malik (<a href="http://twitter.com/om">@om</a>), Felicia Day (<a href="http://twitter.com/feliciaday">@feliciaday</a>), and Wil Wheaton (<a href="http://twitter.com/wilw">@wilw</a>) (yes, <em><a href="http://www.wilwheaton.net/">that</a></em> Wil Wheaton). The Mars Phoenix Lander (<a href="http://twitter.com/MarsPhoenix">@MarsPhoenix</a>) also is quite talkative.</p>
<p>Finally, I confess to liking the bad guys - Darth Vader (<a href="http://twitter.com/darthvader">@darthvader</a>), Admiral Piett (<a href="http://twitter.com/AdmiralPiett">@admiralpiett</a>), and even Al Qaeda (<a href="http://twitter.com/alqaeda">@alqaeda</a>) <img src='http://talkislam.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So, who are you following? Don&#8217;t forget to follow <a href="http://twitter.com/azizhp">@azizhp</a> - or <a href="http://twitter.com/talkislam">@talkislam</a> for that matter <img src='http://talkislam.info/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /></p>
