  • Registered Users Posts: 122 ✭✭Raspberries


    Stephen Fry, Brian O'Driscoll, Jamie Heaslip, Ricky Gervais, Graham Linehan are a few that I think are really funny/interesting on Twitter!

    There are loads of interesting people on it, including me :pac:

    I don't tweet. However, if I were to, I'd follow Will Ferrell. I've read / seen some of the stuff he posts and it's off-the-wall funny.


  • Registered Users Posts: 103 ✭✭AllyMcFearless

    A few good ones mentioned so far. I'll give a few of them a try.

    Any interesting sports people tweeting. I followed Tiger woods and messi lol, messi has one tweet i think.

    I follow rio ferdinand and stan collymore. Stan will give you plenty to read :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 211 ✭✭phoenix833


    @ochocinco

    One of the top followed sports people. Even if you don't know who he his, he would keep you entertained for hours on end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,725 ✭✭✭SafeSurfer


    Cant wait for Reeling In The Years to cover the day Stephen Fry was stuck in a lift. NOT


    I hope Twitter is just a passing phase of civilization's evolution. I pity future biographers who have to wade through decades of the inane ramblings of their subjects to research their books.

    7.24 Had a bagel for breakfast

    8.05 School run, listened to my Yoga CD.

    12.37 Met Steph for lunch


    aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    i like to read the commentary on whats going on in the world current affairs, politics, sport etc from people. As soon as someone goes down the "what i had for breakfast" route i unfollow.

    @Deadmau5. He has massive rows with people on his Twitter. Hilarious


  • Registered Users Posts: 476 ✭✭Burky126


    Chances are if you don't find anyone interesting to follow it could be your not entirely that interesting yourself.

    It doesn't matter what your into,there is always someone among the unecessary self important updates who has something useful to say,link to or retweet even.It does take a while to get into twitter, I admit but it's tons more interesting than the tired meme macros and drivel that's on facebook.

    some of my favourites

    @jacques_aih
    @lambvox
    @serafinowicz
    @muertos
    @thegrumpyowl
    @twistedlilkitty
    @empiremagazine
    @anniewestdotcom
    @cyriakharris
    @charltonbrooker
    @stebax

    Tip: Just like in really life,be cautious about following your heroes,they might not be as great or wise as you'd thought they'd be.Another tip,a good way to find for more interesting people is to look for tweets from top trends that are either topical or in your own interests.
