Hey guys,

Who are the best folks to follow on twitter for Camp news? The only one I could find is Dale Lolley and I'm not a big fan. Suggestions would be awesome. Thanks

Here's some that I follow on Twitter:

Ken Laird, Mark Kaboly, and Jim Wexell are good reporters. I also follow Adam Schefter and a few national reporters.

As for Steelers, Ryan clark is one of the best. His is RealRyanClark25, I believe. Also LaMarr Woodley, James Harrison, Ike Taylor (but his username is swagging something???), William Gay, James Farrior, A. Brown, E. Sanders, Hines Ward, Troy. Most aren't real active. Ryan is by far the best. LaMarr and Harrison have give aways quite often for autographed photos and sometimes a jersey.

Twitter is way too confusing of a set up with all the # and @ and re-tweeting and other nonsense that goes on. Oh yeah, and when you see answers to questions but have to search the other users to find what the question even was.

I like the instant updates it allows and it's cool when people keep it simple, but in general it's too much of a nuisance to sort through the garbage to get what you want.

Have to agree, that guy's a dbag. And I have 0 interest in following anyone that would take that kind of stance.

I went to the site a couple times through some links on here. But never again.

Unfortunately yes....... I was out all day Saturday, but getting his tweets on my phone. I was sure it was a done deal too. I do think Plax wanted to come back, but with the Jets offer, he couldn't pass it up. I was getting excited about the thought of a tall, redzone threat and always liked Plax.

Yikes, my bad.

I didn't check in daily in the offseason, and must have missed that thread. Very disappointing. Ironically, I found his site through planetsteelers because of articles that were posted.

I'm thinking about creating a dedicated twitter page that only streams Steelers players and reporters.

I'm not tech savvy, but if there is a way to do that on your site, perhaps a way that the stream would appear on one side of the page, that would be awesome.

All,

I created a Twitter Page that is dedicated to the Steelers & NFL News:

http://www.planetsteelers.com/steelers-tweets/

This page has 3 separate Twitter lists and doesn't even require you to have a Twitter account:

1) Only Steelers Players (the name says it all)
2) Pittsburgh Media Outlets (Tribune, etc)
3) National Media Outlets (ESPN, NFL Network, etc)

It streams automatically so you don't have to refresh the page. I've found this to be a great way to keep up on training camp news, free agency and other nfl / steelers news.

Even from a twitter non-enthusiast's view point, this is an awesome addition to the site. Great job!

Thank you for creating this page to the site! Awesome!

I haven't personally signed with twitter so know little how it works. Left Face book last year.

Looking forward to a great year.
