Who to follow on twitter?

Once you follow people who put up useful ag stuff it gets better. I just unfollow those who put lots of stuff I don't care about. I block any annoying adds, but they get replaced usually with something less annoying.
 
The one thing about twattor is that you can see how many f**kwits are out there is a bit frightening really. You get to know what Tracy and Alan (fill in as appropriate) do when they are not on Fartbook. Won't learn a great deal but can be fun. Hash tags just a marker for search engine so if you want to try to start a topic such as glyphosate is vital to you use #glyphosateisvital and others can pick it up easily.
Useful for gaining info on potential customers of you have an novel product and testing the market without too much legwork.
Most people are more approachable online as they are mainly on in leisure time so can make contact without disturbing working day.
I have noticed that my gallery has acted strangely at times when using it, last time it duplicated most of my photos and had to spend half hour deleting

I think you will find that twitter improves with time, as you find the useful contacts to follow and ditch the rubbish. I posted a electrical problem with a USA built drill one night and by the next morning had two replies from USA and Australia with the same correct solution to the problem, saved me hours and a lot of money! @heardfarmingltd

Ok after reading this Thread i started on Twitter some months ago.

Found my sister - is working as a phd in biologics research -they call round about there themes and papers (which i probably wont understand anyway) via Twitter- nice to see

Found #grass_to_milk and have been Very inspired as it is still my thinking that this is the way a Dairy operation has to move on.

Also a big Hello to you UK and US arable Farmers. Really impressed about all the networking in conservation/no till, cover cropping, intercropping, biologic Farming, precission Farming.

Have to say that we are possibly the One and only owner of a sumo DTS in germany and Really like to compare with your views.

Iam using
@World_Oil_Price
@OilPriceHourly
For Scouting Diesel prices..

And iam trying to get into a network how to plant, plant and raise meadow orchards.

So ,iam only using Twitter for agriculture. Still sometimes wondering who likes that few Tweets of me and trying to get rid of all those strange followers a cant assign. Will Take Time to sort it .

Best Regards
@TimSeyfferth
