Olá Homelabers!

Ah um tempo atrás, vi um tweet do John Troyer (@jtroyer) sobre os 50 maiores influenciadores do mundo VMware no Twitter e resolvi trazer aqui para vocês.

O John Troyer, um Ex-VMware - um dos criadores do programa vExpert - é hoje CEO do Influence Marketing Council e usou uma ferramenta chamada LittleBird para chegar a essa lista.

Na minha modesta opinião, essa lista ficou bem legal, e é um excelente ponto de partida para quem está começando nesse mundo ou ainda descobrindo o twitter agora.

Aqui está o link para o post completo no blog do John Troyer no Medium

E para completar, o Eric Siebert (@ericsiebert) do vSphere-Land, tem uma lista com as Top 100 pessoas da VMware no Twitter.

Como eu já disse várias vezes nesse blog, o Twitter, é uma ferramenta fantástica para nós, que trabalhamos com tecnologia. Você fica informado (se seguir as contas certas), tem a possibilidade de ter contato com pessoas que de outra maneira seria impossível e faz amigos!
