Twitterers I recommend students follow

Twitter

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Twitter allows you to connect with anyone in the world, whether they're
acquaintances, classmates, celebrities or complete strangers with common
interests.

You can use Twitter to network with professionals, stay updated on
current news, trends and ideas in many different industries, connect
with businesses on a "human" level, engage in conversation, and share
content - and new uses are constantly emerging. As a student looking for
a job in the social media industry, Twitter has been my #1 resource to
network and learn about the industry.

Here are some Twitterers I recommend students follow:

@heatherhuhman <http://twitter.com/heatherhuhman> - Tweets helpful
information to those seeking internships and entry level jobs.
@collegebloggers <http://twitter.com/CollegeBloggers> - Connects college
students, faculty, and alumni bloggers, sharing relevant content.
@careerealism <http://twitter.com/careerealism> - Career experts tweet
career advice in response to questions sent in by readers.
@sweetcareers <http://twitter.com/sweetcareers> - Great tips for college
students and job seekers.
@findinternships <http://twitter.com/findinternships> - Informative
resource for those looking for internships.
