    Amazing list Leo, glad to see so many familiar faces here. If i can pick one person that thought me the value of twitter, social and marketing it would be @iconic88:twitter . Amazing friend. 

    Besides him would be @ChrisBrogan:twitter .

    Positively,

    Peggy

      Peggy you know you are my TWITTER SPARKLE and you are always making my DAY. I never met anyone with so much positive energy! RE: Buffer yes i think was me who DM you, as i normally do when i get some great tool to share with you. WAS my pay back to you, as you introduce me to @twylah and now i cant live without my branded pages. :)

    Wow, it’s a great honor to be featured in this amazing flock of tweeps (most are my friends too), Leo. Thank you very much. Myself, still learning the power of Twitter from many of them, incl. You! :)

    • http://twitter.com/LeoWid Leo Widrich

      Hi Karthick, great to see you here. Awesome, glad you are connected with most of them already. That’s a fabulous attitude and one that I want to keep too – keep learning, stay humble. :)

    Leo, well not so sure that i really fit in this great group of people, so THANK YOU a lot for including me in your post. Personally big thanks to you and Joel for rolling out Buffer and “free” my time, which i try to spend in community. Well i need to say it again BUFFER just simply #ROCKS!

    Again i am very honored!

    Awesome list Leo- and knowing more than half of the listed bloggers – I couldn’t agree more to what you have said about them!

    Thanks for sharing :)

  • http://twitter.com/mqtodd Michael Q Todd

    Thanks dude. Looking forward to another rocking #Toolschat tomorrow!

    • http://twitter.com/LeoWid Leo Widrich

      yep, it will rock! :)

    I can not say enough about @tweetsmarter! When I first started with twitter I asked a question of someone…a little later I received a link from @tweetsmarter with some additional resources that were totally unsolicited. Considering that he has 300k followers and has supported me with other questions is just amazing to me. Also, @jkcallas:disqus provides  a significant amount of value in his tweets with unique information and find his blog to be written so articulately. People like this are the examples I share offline with people who think that twitter is still just another random technology tool.

    Amazing list of amazing people that we can all learn from and grow :)  

    thank you very much for your support to others :) we leaned a lot from you dear @twitter-110821538:disqus :)

    And looking forward to learn more as we grow.

    Thanks,
    Sharel

    Thank you for mentioning me in this post, though I don’t feel I deserve to be up there next to greats such as Jay Baer and Darren Rowse :-)
