Thanks for stopping by to see who I am choosing for this week’s #Follow #Friday.  I have four persons selected, and hopefully, they will be someone you haven’t heard of before.  If you have, then it will only confirm what you already new!

Katie Felten (LinkedIn All Star)

@KatieFelten — Katie is widely considered a Linkedin expert and she is the president of MKELive, a company that provides Linkedin training services for a wide variety of organizations.  Katie can also show you how to practice Bikram Yoga.

@Stephaniec2c — Stephanie is a key member of the Dallas based Marketing Zen online marketing company.  She really engages her followers keeping everyone up with the latest social media news.  When you get to know the lady behind the tweets, you find she is a down-to-earth, loving and caring mother and wife.

@PaulKirchoff — Paul may be the coolest CEO I’ve never met!  He runs a full service social media and online marketing company based out of Austin, TX.  Hey, we know that some of the coolest tech people come from Austin!

@scottica — I appreciate Scott who is the CEO at SWIX, a social media analytics company based out of Ottawa.  I tweeted about trying their service and he responded to me asking if I had ideas for improvement.  I have enjoyed trying the tools which are in beta, and I think they are a good solution for social media marketers to look at.  Give it a try.

There you go.  These are my Follow Friday tweeters.

Chris Brogan challenged many of us to handle Follow Friday different on twitter, and so I have decided to do just that.  With his suggestion, I have created a post mentioning my Follow Friday folks telling a little bit why someone should follow them.

You will have to bear with me here as I have a variety of interests that range from professional wrestling, to sports, to social media, to web design and many others.

@kaseyjohns–Casey is a talented website designer from San Marcos, TX and he handles promotions and the website for the Austin Turfcats, an arena football team.  I actually got to meet him when he came to North Little Rock with his team to play the Arkansas Diamonds where I was working.  Check out the Tufcats’ website.

@slims_conway–Did I forget to tell you?  I like food!  Slims has pretty good chicken in Conway, AR where I live.  They actually have several locations, so you can find one near you at their website.  I also like that they use social media.

@Strombolis1–Quite possibly the best stromboli on the planet!  Well, at least in Conway, AR.  I visited there on Wednesday and immediately realized that I had sinned (it has to be a sin to eat their food because it so good!).  I had some of their garlic knots, and oh they were so good!  If you are in Conway, check them out.  Oh yeah, and they are on Facebook too.

@Arkansite–Meet Shelli Russell.  She has started MySaline.com and Arkansite.com.  She has created these community-based, hyper-local sites in Central Arkansas utilizing Ning.com.  She does a great job of keeping up with the events and happenings going on in her neighborhood.  She is also a good neighbor lending her support to charitable causes.

So, there you have it.  These are my picks for Follow Friday on twitter.  Check these guys and gals out and follow them, because they are worth the follow!

Happy tweeting.
