    Every cyclist seems to twitter these days - just wondering who people follow or find to the most entertaining/informative/funny? Suprisingly Floyd isin't very active...

    Dave Zabriskie is always weirdly entertaining:
    Why don't they wear skinsuits for curling?

    As is Wiggins:
    also met my nutritionist who has given me a pot of green powder, in his words "it will make you piss like a donkey for days"

    Ivan Basso has stopped posting in English, which is a shame because it was kind of endearing:
    today.. big snow in my house... home tranier..

    I agree, any service that lists Lance and Ashton Kutcher as it's most famous users is pretty lame in my book. It is useful though.
    Another day of press for Killers. International 2day. How do you say My movie is Unf**cking believable in Italian?

    Ughh, shut up!

    In general I agree, but for getting Rás updates it seems to be the most reliable over the last few days. Shane Stokes coverage and hence updates seems kinda sporadic.

    17 twitter updates since the last update from Shane (approx 50min ago)

    So easy to slag off Twitter, especially for people who have never used it. Like lot of things on the web, it can be very useful fi you use it properly, and no, following Stephen Fry or that Father Ted guy isn't using it properly.
