10 Twitter Design Lists You Must Follow
Published on Monday, November 9, 2009 – 1:00 pm
Twitter just recently introduced Twitter lists, a helpful way to better organise the tweets of those you follow. Twitter lists also allow you to find interesting groups of people to keep track of via the use of others recommendations.
After much research looking into other Twitterer’s lists and via the use of Listorious, I’ve compiled these ten design twitter lists that are definitely worth following.
No Blab, Just Design Links
A list of Twitter profiles that only post high quality design links and have very little to no other ‘daily life’ tweets. An alternative to your RSS feed reader.
Top Design Blogs
Lists the twitter profiles of all of the top design blogs. Includes such blogs as Smashing Mag, Web Designer Depot, Logo Design Love, I Love Typography and many more. This is a list curated by @behoff who has some other high quality lists worth checking out.
Must Follow Web Designers
Lists the most socially active best web designers in the industry. Includes such names as Paul Boag, Cameron Moll, Fabio Sasso, Vinh Le, Jo Phillips, Johnathan Snook, Jason Santa Maria and many more.
Typography
Follows all the typography related heros, apps and resources that you will need. Also be sure to check out @ilovetypography’s typography lists.
Ad Agencies
The top ad agencies of the world compiled into one big list. Includes names such as OGILVY, Big Spaceship, BBH Labs, Ogilvy Worldwide, Leo Burnett, TBWA\Worldwide, McCann Erickson NY, Draftfcb, Critical Mass, Scholz und Friends, etc.
Logo Design & Branding
This lists the top branding agencies and twitter users that post links to high quality logo & branding resources. A must for logo design lovers. Also be sure to check out this twitter list of freelance logo designers.
Illustration & Illustrators
Lists the leading illustrators in the industry. List curated by @grainedit who also has some other great lists worth checking out.
Agencies & Studios
Lists many of the leading agencies and studios on twitter. Includes names such as Critical Mass, The Duffy Agency, BBH New York, Saatchi Design, Fantasy Interactive, booneoakley,InterbrandNY, firstborn, The Martin Agency, Richard Lent and many more.
Creatives To Watch
This is a list put together by @Behance which compiles a great list of high quality designers & illustrators from around the world.
Designers
If you just want to follow a general range of designers & creatives, this twitter list is for you. A lot of rubbish talk but hey, they all like design. Be sure to check out the rest of @freelancefolder’s lists.

It seems there’s a lot of designers on Twitter these days, maybe that’s a sign that I need to jump on the wagon;)

Thanks for describing the whole list thing because I was confused about how that worked for a second….thought you selected specific tweets you liked, but I think they have a favorite option for that…
