Are any of you following them? What are your favorites? So far our favorites are @offalchris @ruthreichl @jsteingarten is just getting started and I'm looking forward to what he posts. Fri Apr 03 06:39:12 -0700 2009 130031 Shane Greenwood 1 4563965 @gachatz @bittman are two of my favorites. Fri Apr 03 07:28:47 -0700 2009 4563816 238423 HuggingtheCoast 2 4564190 I love Twitter!!!! I follow Rick Bayless, Food & Wine, Alice Waters- though that tramp hasn't posted a single thing!!!! I love that I can read peoples tweets, but don't have to follow if I don't want too...I did Chris Cuomo for a single day- that guy tweets every 2 1/2 minutes!!!! Not! Looking forward to all the replys- I cannot believe all who now participate! Fri Apr 03 08:28:11 -0700 2009 4563965 12388 JalamaMama 1 4564312 Let me be the first to add @ruhlman ... I'm also looking forward to hearing others I might not have realized existed! Fri Apr 03 09:03:28 -0700 2009 4563816 239573 choco_lab38 2 4566405 Yes, Ruhlman! I also follow @ruthreichl, @johntedge, @richardblais, @bittman (though a little Bittman goes a long way with me). Plus several things like Food & Wine and the Food network and a page about homemade wine that followed me so I followed back. Fri Apr 03 20:17:20 -0700 2009 4564312 61135 Boudleaux 1 4564600 I was also looking for some the foodnetwork people but it looks like none of them are on it. Kind of surprised not to find Alton Brown, and was especially hoping to find tweets from DDD. Maybe FN has a policy against it? Maybe I just haven't searched enough? Fri Apr 03 10:25:22 -0700 2009 4563816 130031 Shane Greenwood 2 4565492 Me too for DDD, but Guy does have a twitter- and has followers...he has just never written anything....just like ALICE!!! Fri Apr 03 14:20:58 -0700 2009 4564600 12388 JalamaMama 1 4564610 Just checked out @noreservations Seems to be more of an advertising vehicle than actual posts from him, too bad.
