    Thanks for the inclusion on your Twitter list!

  2. Graphic Design Blog (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    I must say the list is a real productive list but at the same time looked quiet familiar and repetitive.

    Undoubtedly, all these guys are the heroes of graphic design world but I think new talents should be exposed as well.

    Please don’t take it negatively because last month i also added a post titled:

    “20 Creative Twitter backgrounds & 10 Graphic Designers to follow – Twitter treats!!”

    http://www.graphicdesignblog.org/twitter-backgrounds-and-graphic-designers/

    Listing almost same names but I plan to bring up a sequel post where I would be listing some new designers and their profiles @ twitter. By the way, i am sure you won’t regret adding my blogname to the list of new designing blogs;)…. I am at twitter too @graphixdesign

  3. gariphic (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Great list. Selfish plug-I’d like to be #51 @gariphic

  4. Peter McClean (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Hello! Thank you for the great list. I was already following most, but I added the rest. I am a multi-media artist & animator w/over 17 years of industry experience, and I try to keep my tweets useful, so they act as a resource to others. Plz consider following me as well: http://www.twitter.com/PeterMcCleanMMA – Thx! Have a great day!! =]

    Keep up !

  9. Dean Rivet (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Great collection of blogs!

  10. Nikhil (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    You are welcome Brian,
    reply from the people like you inspires me to bring such posts.

    Great list of power users. While there are definitely more designers/creatives on Twitter, it’s really hard to keep track of all of them since there are so many terrific ones. The power users always get more recognition because they really are just that more visible. I think @minervity’s designer directory will help though. Feel free to connect with me, btw, at @bullfrogmedia !

  14. safetyphoto (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    I’m not a designer, but I might need one;

  15. Webbo (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    There are lot’s of these list doing the rounds, but I do find them very useful. It great when you find someone new to add.

    A list of the next wave of twitter stars would be a very interesting idea.

    Great work.

  16. Gary (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    GraphicNothing – i’m worth following, although it’s mostly links to my http://www.flickr.com/photos/ilikegraphics. ta!

  17. Angie Bowen (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Great list, all wonderful blogs that I greatly enjoy reading! Thanks so much for including Arbenting and my twitter! The Arbenting writers have now moved on to Fuel Your Creativity but the current content at Arbenting won’t be going anywhere.

    Keep up the good work!

  29. Robin Cannon (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    It’s a tough one, because clearly those bloggers are doing great work, but I definitely think there is a danger that too many people are highlighting the same blogs and twitter users. I already think there is a danger that web design is becoming too generic, and too incestuous in its viewpoint (web designers tending too often to look to other web designers for inspiration, instead of thinking outside the box).

    Most of the bloggers above are high profile because they’re great designers and original designers. But there are a lot more people out there doing great work, and it would be a shame if they were overlooked. In addition, say everyone looks at Outlaw Design Blog for advice, there’s a danger that their designs start to feel too samey. That not only reduces their own impact, it reduces the impact of DannyOutlaw’s designs too!

  30. Rodrigo (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    how come i'm not there? @silentbob21 ;D

  31. DazPix (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Cool, there are more of us out there too! Free stuff to download here http://dazpix.co.uk/cat/resources as well as a raft of motion graphics work http://dazpix.co.uk/portfolio
    keep up the good work!

  32. Syed Balkhi (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    You are Welcome :)

  34. Nikhil (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009

    Hey, Thanks for the Genuine reply..
    Actually the repetition thing came to me also before writing this post but then I thought that we are working on inspirational post. Its right to give more exposure to newcomers but according to me it will better if it is given to their work.
    I liked you idea for this. I am also working on the post in which I want include their work. This post will be published in the first week of August.

  35. Nikhil (Reply) on Tuesday 21, 2009
