<p>In an attempt to continue on from <a href="http://www.jakejohnson.co.uk/follow-friday-12th-february-2010/">last week&#8217;s #FollowFriday post</a> here are my recommendations for peoploe you should e-stalk on the Twitters.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.twitter.com/clear_thinking">@Clear_Thinking</a></strong> &#8211; Worked closely with these guys for over a year. I learned a great deal and they just lovely people. They publish really useful and insightful marketing tips on a regular basis, know what they are talking about and have the experience to back it up! They also have fascinating collection of clients, which they often refer to, meaning you uncover interesting things like <a href="http://www.fabletrading.co.uk">Trollbeads</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/bristwestival"><strong>@bristwestival</strong></a> &#8211; A fantastic event on March 25th, bringing Bristol&#8217;s Twitter community together for some music, food and a natter, while raising some vital funds for <a href="http://www.concern.net/en">Concern Worldwide</a>, an international humanitarian organisation working to reducing suffering and ending poverty. I attended last year&#8217;s event, which was raising money for <a href="http://www.charitywater.org/">charity:water</a>, and had a fantastic time even though I&#8217;d just gotten into Twitter. Now I know more, its bound to be even more enjoyable! (I&#8217;m trying to drag <a href="http://www.twitter.com/lgladdy">@lgladdy</a> and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/Chutzpah84">@Chutzpah84</a> along)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/tfma_event"><strong>@tfma_event</strong></a> &#8211; I&#8217;m off to this event on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, so its interesting to me to follow them. They&#8217;ve got Google giving an Analytics masterclass as well as other keynotes speakers helping you get the best from digital marketing, CRM, SEO, PPC &#8211; all sorts marketing focussed.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.twitter.com/lgladdy"><strong>@lgladdy</strong></a> &#8211; Although I recommended him last week and I&#8217;m trying my best to vary them, my workmate Liam gets another nod. His recent work on my wedding list and the Gradwell homepage &#8211; <a href="http://bit.ly/64N0fI">http://bit.ly/64N0fI</a> &#8211; is fantastic, with the addition of a new navigation, oversized footer and, best of all, a telephone number search. It also doesn&#8217;t hurt that he is a genuinely nice guy, bargain hunter and proud geek.</p>
<p>Until next week fair followers&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week <a href="http://www.jakejohnson.co.uk/a-better-way-to-follow-friday/">I made my first post here about a new way to post your recommendations for the Twitter trend &#8216;Follow Friday&#8217;</a>. I also mentioned that it was a method I might pick up, so, thanks to <a href="http://www,twitter.com/efficiencycoach" target="_blank">@efficiencycoach</a>, here are my Follow Friday recommendations for this week:</p>
<p>I&#8217;d first like to suggest <a href="http://www.twitter.com/GradwellTweets">@GradwellTweets</a>. I&#8217;ll come clean. I work for Bath-based Gradwell, but they have <a href="http://www.gradwell.com/bundles/offers/moo">great offers with other companies</a>, <a href="http://www.gradwell.com/phoneservices/multiuser">innovative telephony products</a> and were <a href="http://www.thisisbath.co.uk/news/Telecoms-firm-secures-coveted-50-place/article-1473406-detail/article.html">recently named as one of the fastest growing tech companies in the UK</a>.</p>
<p>My second reccomendation is really a double-header. <a href="http://twitter.com/bryonythomas">@BryonyThomas</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/cherylcrichton">@CherylCrichton</a>. I worked with Bryony and Cheryl on a year-long project for Gradwell. They are now both Clear Thinkers at <a href="http://www.clear-thought.co.uk/">Clear Thought Consulting</a> and are producing fantastic blogs, the most recent being about <a href="http://www.clear-thought.co.uk/in_thought/art/23/">writing a thorough brief to suppliers</a>, as well as being generally excellent marketing consultants!</p>
<p>Next up is <a href="http://www.twitter.com/quidcodeals">@quidcodeals</a>. From the cashback site Quidco, this feed gives you the best of time-sensitive deals from participating retailers. For example, yesterday there was free £12 chocolates from Thortons and an extra 20% off at Burton &#8211; well worth following in the build-up to Christmas.</p>
<p>Penultimately, my work colleague <a href="http://www.twitter.com/Chutzpah84">@Chutzpah84</a>, or Rob Weeks as I know him. An all-round nice guy, Rob&#8217;s tweets provide an insight into the &#8216;everyman&#8217; life and findings on the Interwebs of a new dad in and around Bath/Bristol &#8211; although he does like talking about &#8216;<a href="http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%23therestaurant">The Restaurant</a>&#8216;. Also helps out at <a href="http://www.freelancesupermarket.com/">Freelance Supermarket</a>, which showcases the best of freelance services in the UK.</p>
<p>Lastly, <a href="http://www.twitter.com/efficiencycoach">@efficiencycoach</a>, because I can&#8217;t steal her idea without giving her a mention!</p>
