See, Twitter has influenced even the way you write your blog’s titles!
Why this strange idea to write a Twitter list not on Twitter, but on a blog?
Because I need more than 140 characters to describe some of the people I enjoy following on Twitter and why you could be happy to discover them…
The true value of the “Follow Friday”‘s tradition is to help your followers find value in following new people/accounts (that you follow).
To follow the people mentioned below will help you (if you’re on Twitter) get value.
They’re all based in Switzerland, human connections are complex.
@BristolGva : because I’m among their favs!! Seriously, their communication is at equal level with the quality of their service and restaurant: fresh, tasty, generous!
@VMarchand: because she is the CEO of victoriamarchand.ch! Her tweets are highly focused on the French part of the Swiss Advertising market, but she shares more developed insights on her blog and in a Swiss business review. A touch of humour combined with a caliente character for hot tweets.
@stephanekoch : I follow him to be sure that he follows me! But he’s one the very few I check regularly the tweets to be sure that I didn’t miss something essential in issues regarding digital trends: security, politics, marketing, strategy, social media, and more. Expert. Serious. But not only.
@annajobin : a meteorite. A unique mix of grace, sensitivity, sharing and learning passionately, pouring some sociologists drops into her mixture.
@carobertazzo : as already mentioned in a tweet, a sharp mind, it seems that she tries hard, with no compromise, to understand deeply the world’s complexity!
@cmic : the only person of the list I haven’t met (yet?) personnally, but she gives a thorough overview of technical, political, social, trends. Also a generous “sharer”, making connections, curating the information.
@ideadetective : for a sharp focus on innovative ideas, follow him, your next (big?) idea might pop up !
@oliviertripet : if you want to know more about the hot topic of the moment, Community Management, follow him, he has developed a community for community managers. Where you get true insights, a reflexion, reflexion tracks, and much more. “He does as he says”, and this is highly valuable.
Final word: they all don’t (really) mind if they have the biggest……. number of followers!
And sorry for all the others I follow with high interest, this is not an exclusive list, just another way to say #FF (and thank you).

This is a great list! I agree hat FollowFriday is about suggesting added value, and I absolutely agree with you on the people I know. (Therefore I have blindly, instantly followed the person I didn’t know yet.) I am all the more flattered to find myself in such wonderful company. Thank you!
As for your description of
memy tweets, it sounds good, but I’ll let others judge. The funny thing is that I immediately thought of a falling star and felt ambiguous about its inherent pessimism for the future. But then Wikipedia thought me better:A meteorite is a natural object originating in outer space that survives impact with the Earth’s surface.
I kind of like that…
Thanks again!
See, I’m right: for that kind of reflexion (and not only), people should definitely follow you :-)!!
And what about the light of the meteorite? It stays much longer in your eyes.. that was my purpose, including the notion of “originating in outer space”. Sorry for an eventual aspect of “ephemera”, not meant at all.
I wish I always did as I say! At least I’m trying. Thank you Claudia for including me in your post, it’s very flattering.
