Twits and their #AwesomeHandles 5.0

Ok, so this post's been sitting in my drafts for a number of weeks! Sorry about that!


*****


Here I am with another set of #AwesomeHandles!


In my last post (Twits and their #AwesomeHandles 4.0) I’d mentioned how the point-oh came into being. So, while this is the fifth edition of #AwesomeHandles, it’s technically the second edition of the point-oh system.


You’re right, that’s got nothing to do with anything. That was just FYI. =)


What, how, when, why and various other w’s and h’s are featured in the first edition, second edition and third edition. Skim through to get an idea. Or even if you just wanna see who’s been featured so far. =)


That reminds me, another feature that’s emerged from this trend is a handle I’ve created: @AweseomHandles. This handle only follows #AwesomeHandles that have been featured in my blogs so far. Some of the handles on my previous posts no longer exist: some users have deleted their accounts, while others have changed their handles to newer, more interesting ones!


In any case, all #AwesomeHandles that still exist are being followed by @AwesomeHandles. So in case you want a comprehensive list of which ones to follow, go on and follow this handle. But remember: if your handle isn’t featured on any of the #AwesomeHandle blog editions, then this handle won’t follow you. *shrugs*


Also, I don't really tweet a lot from that handle. It sort of just sits there following a bunch of #AwesomeHandles. *shrugs again*


For those of you who have no idea what I’m going on about: I essentially have a collection of Twitter handles (usernames) that are, well, kinda fascinating. Some of these I come across via numerous RT’s and mentions. However, most of these are on the list because someone recommended the handle. If it weren’t for these recommendations, I prolly wouldn’t have a list this long!


For this particular edition, I had heaaaaaps of help from two special people: @0__1 and @md610. Thanks guys! #AwesomeHandles 5.0 wouldn’t’ve happened if it weren’t for your recommendations! You rock! =D
