My account on Twitter reaches one year old on Tuesday, and similar to many other individuals working in the internet industry, I have seen my fair share of proclaimed “Social Media Gurus/Experts”. On the contrary, a few users have made their way across my news feed daily due to the reputable and informative content that they publish regularly.

So, its safe to say that I immediately devour the material published by the following thought leaders:

PR 2.0 | Brian Solis – Public Relations and communications.
The Future Buzz | Adam Singer – Media, marketing, and PR.
Good.is | “Pushing the world forward.”
Seth’s Blog | Seth Godin – Internet news, and motivational.
Peter Shankman – Social Media, and PR.

This short list alone is enough to stay in line with the forefront of internet trends and behavior. Please leave a comment there is a source of information that you always consume yourself with once published.

This post was inspired by Adam Singer’s post named “What If?“.

To everyone who uses Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Digg, Flickr, and/or other social websites: What do you do you use these tools for?

I use social media…?

Embrace these early years of social media for future success and prosperity.
