   Thanks, anytime. It was surprising how long it took to find and confirm.

   Wow Paige, nice work! It’s great that you have both the Twitter IDs and the blog/site links as well.

   Now to categorize and make a custom Google search engine just on these URLs, hmmm.

   Thanks for this Paige – really handy to add those missing from my follow list.

   @Lee Thanks, I tried to use the url in each person’s twitter, the sites are a great resource, I’ve been reading many of them for years. The CSE is a great idea, just let me know when it’s ready and I’ll spread the word for ya. Hahaha.

   @David My pleasure. I hope to track down the last few missing twitter IDs.

   Paige,

   Thanks for taking the time to compile this list, I know it took you a significant amount of time and I definitely think its a valuable resource.

   One of the things that I find interesting knowing who I follow, and being familiar with most of the people in this list is the difference in the social media types vs. the online marketing/copywriting/seo types.

   The guys that are “social media” types first are much more prone to following back many more people as opposed to the others who seem to be having more one-sided conversations or to give them the benefit of the doubt trying to keep a lot of the signal out and just maintain the “noise” of their closest online peers.

   If someone will send me a copy of SAS, I can run some models to prove the hypothesis. lol

   Thanks again for putting together this list Paige!

   Thanks for the info. Good to know some new and notable web marketing gurus that I can stalk.

   This is exactly what I was looking for! I bookmarked this page and will be adding them to my following list over the next coupe of days. I’m also going to add you to my blogrol, great content!

    Thank you so much for providing such a valuable resource for us all, Paige. Now we have no excuses not to network and collaborate I know it was a lot of work and wanted to tell you how much I appreciate it.

    I love that I read this when I did. I was going through my reader and just before I got to this post I read the winners and thought to myself, “I wonder if they have the twitter accounts for all these people posted somewhere…If not I have some work ahead of me.” Thankfully your post came through!

    Good list, although I am not sure I would call all of these people online marketers.
13. Dustin Woodard says:

    Thanks for adding in what should have been on the original piece. A lot of great choices on the list, though the order is obviously off, especially on 11-50.

    Good list. I didn’t find all the ones I was looking for when I wanted to congratulate people yesterday. Thanks for putting it together.
15. Dayngr says:

    December 20, 2008 at 1:13 am

    I wouldn’t call all these folks marketers either but still a good list of good folks. I’m always amazed by people who are labled marketing “experts” yet don’t market their own brand names.

    Jason Calacanis a marketer? But I thought marketers actually worked for a living and weren’t just egotistical self-loving jerks?

    Apart from that, good list (if a little skewed as far as positions are concerned).

    @Ryan – Thanks, different people have different agendas. Some want to be the biggest, some want an exclusive communication channel. I think ’social media types’ follow back because they need friends, not followers so to speak.

    The list is kind of a 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon thing. To be honest, it’s a interesting list of people, but I think the title is misleading. (on the original and on this post, so I have changed mine).
    http://www.invesp.com/blog/sales-marketing/how-did-we-rank-the-top-100-marketers-of-2008.html

    @Geno – Thanks. As long as some people find it useful I’m happy.

    @Cliff – Didn’t the judge warn you to stop stalking?

    @Lary – I appreciate the link, glad you find the list helpful.

    @Valeria – I’m glad you like it. Collaborate away!

    @Mike – Not all the twitter accounts are created equal, as you will see going through the list. It’s by no means a list of the top twitter id’s.

    @Adam – Agreed.

    @Dustin – I think a genuine list of a top 100 is impossible to create. What would the criteria be? Most eyeballs? Most revenue?

    @Mike – I still haven’t found all of them, and a couple I am still not 100% sure about.

    @Dayngr – I think many people don’t have time to update their blog, let alone their personal brand. I am not sure having a big personal brand is the same as being an expert.

    @Aleksander – Thanks, I don’t imagine diggers liking it much, but I appreciate it anyway.

    @Sheila – I don’t know Jason and I think the Internet acts as a reality distortion field, so I try to stay away from the politics when I can. Especially if I haven’t met them. I do like his dogs.

    @Joel – Fast work. Good site. Although it’s rendering a little strange in Safari.

    @Ann – Thanks.

    @Kyle – I was looking for one of them and ended up tracking down more.

    @Web* (strange name) – To get on to that site I think you’ll probably have to do one of 2 things:
    1. Bribe Joel Comm
    2. Be recommended by the people on the site.

    @Paul – It’s not my list. The list comes from: http://www.invesp.com/2008/top-100-marketers-of-2008.html

    @Kevin – It’s been updated.

    Thanks for your comments!

    Great list, but how in the world are Mike Arrington, Leo Laporte, Robert Scoble, Arianna Huffington, Jason Calacanis, Brian Clark or several others marketers? They’re not – they’re influencers.

    Let’s keep it real, please.
26. Alex says:

    December 22, 2008 at 2:56 pm

    Thanks for the list! I am constantly looking to follow more interesting and relevant people.

    Hi Paige and all readers! Please note that Bruce Clay’s Twitter account is @bruceclayinc. We just picked up @bruceclay so no one else would snatch it up, but the first is the company’s active account. We are looking into ways to have one of the accounts aliased to the other, but until then, for Bruce Clay updates, go ahead and follow @bruceclayinc!
28. Paige says:

    December 22, 2008 at 8:04 pm

    @JD There are lots of non-marketers and others on the list. Not so worried about real, just accurate will do me.. it’s getting closer.

    @Alex, hint – follow the people they are following (everyone has to learn somewhere).

    @Virginia, there’s no readers, it’s just me don’t worry

    Your details have been fixed, thanks for that.

    Very nice list, I think it will help people connect with their Internet marketing heroes. I suggest for novice Twitter users to not blindly follow these folks without knowing who they are, what they do and how they got there.

    I love these lists of real people on Twitter. It makes it much more effective for novices to pick it up and embrace it easier.

    Hey Paige:

    Am tracking and familiar with most of the above. A couple of omissions from my POV are: @Ed_Dale, @warrenwhitlock, and @michellem.

    I post under @2healthguru and focus on health care reform, and related emerging consumer directed health care and policy related issues.

    Thanks for the list!

    Truly fascinating how many of them are using Twitter. But knew almost everyone from Online Marketing was into Twitter, but would not have suspected to reach of Twitter that high.
