EH-Net

I currently have 2 accounts, rattis and rattis_sec. I was using rattis_sec to follow infosec and rattis for everything else, but I've been thinking of combining them lately and using lists.

I'm curious how everyone else is using twitter.

I use it to follow infosec people and I do have some friends on it. There are people who tweet about security news, new tools that come out, exploits, etc..

but just the one account to do it all?

I'm currently following a selected group of accounts and they are enough to keep me up-to-date. If something BIG happens outside of these accounts then it's almost always conveyed via RTs. I also follow some lists

Security:
http://twitter.com/#/list/MikD/thar-be-pirates
http://twitter.com/latenitecoder/security
http://twitter.com/sans_isc/handlers

Tech:
http://twitter.com/ohnmur/tech

These along with Google Reader and mailing lists is about enough to satiate my appetite.

Yes, its not so bad, lists are useful.

Just for following infosec news. I really don't care what my friends are doing every second (if fact, I'd rather often not know).

I've amassed a pretty good selection of people to follow. I'm sure I'm missing some, and I know I need to weed out some that post mostly fluff, but it's a decent start: www.twitter.com/infosiege

That brings up part of the heart of the question. I follow lots of different things in real life. Martial Arts, exercise with kettlebells, infosec, and a few other geek like things. So I figured breaking up into different accounts would keep the "fluff" down.

I'm still working on the lists. one thing I noted, My doesn't always catch the Re-tweets.
