[Update 3-17-2009]
Individuals and companies listed here were discovered largely from browsing “Follow” and “Follower” lists throughout the Twitter network; and by identifying individuals that I have worked for (paulballen), associated with via the FamilySearch Developers Network, or met during various family history conferences. I also subscribe to a #genealogy hash-tag feed to find other individuals that post about genealogy.
Some Twitter profiles were discovered from TamuraJones‘ “Follow List” based on the following tip: http://twitter.com/TamuraJones/status/1124553358
