This is an update to a previous post. I do believe the next version will be an automated web app and as I mentioned it suck that twitter does not have group functionality. The whole idea behind this is to build a stronger community. There is a lot of .Net people but DBA's seem to be slow adopters. Maybe a SQL Server Pro who just joined twitter runs across this post and now they have a instant network where he\she can see the value of twitter before the interest wanes. Don't forget to follow me too!
Here is the original post.
If you don't know what twitter is, click here for the wiki entry or here for a nice video primer. In a nutshell, it is blogging meets IM. I like it so I will link to interesting SQL people that I follow. edit:BrentO just did a twitter 101 post.

Well since I originally post this, I have found a lot on new SQL tweeps(or new to me.) I asked for shouts if you wanted to be included so if I missed, just comment and please don't take offense. I follow 1300+ people and only a small % make a living on SQL Server so I could have very well have missed a few. I am going to try give a short(hopefully accurate.) blurb of info about the person as well.
