Kevin Rose Launches We Follow Twitter User Directory

Posted on March 15, 2009

We Follow is a new user powered Twitter directory. The site was launched by Digg founder Kevin Rose. The site is easy to use and understand. Each category on the website is a tag such as gardening, sports and knitting. Twitter users in each of the categories are ranked by the number of followers they have.

Twitter users can add themselves to the category by sending a tweet to @wefollow with the three categories they want to be including in.

Excamples of some the popular categories being used include: blogs, entertainment, health, science, socialmedia, food, books, news, politics, movies, fashion, shopping, gadgets, gadgets, pets, and business.

Some people not following the instructions (WeFollow Fail) have wound up in the "yourtag" category.

WeFollow is a useful alternative to sites like Twitterholic that show only the most popular Twitter users overall. Websites like these have become dominated by celebrity twitterers as of late.
