Twitterers: What are your favorite news feeds?
I get a couple, but find that I delete almost all that I follow because they prove useless. Or overkill. Any suggestions?

And if you tweet, have you used TweetDeck yet? Fabulous. Someone on here recommended it and I really like it.

Those of you that don't like Twitter: I get it, but it's not the conversation I want to have here.

1. A recent Twitter-er here....
Signed on for NPR's political newsfeed, which seems okay. A little reluctant to sign on for the CNN headline feed...

Haven't used Tweetdeck yet...

3. I am reluctant on CNN, too.
I tried Time and it was useless. Maybe I hit a bad day.

Rachel Maddow is pretty good.

Follow me!

My Feed is AWESOME!

Also, do you know of a good, FREE Twitter app for The Blackberry?

I tried one (Blackbird) that just kept crashing when I tried to run it.

4. I just have a regular old cell phone.
I'll talk to one of my friends with a Blackberry and see if they know of anything.

I'll add you to those I'm following. You really won't want to follow mine since all I post on mine are things related to the English classes I teach. Unless you want to know when the Old Man and the Sea test is.
