Who are the most interesting people to follow on Twitter?

Tip for best answer: M$1.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

In terms of interesting tweets, aside from myself (waitingforjune), I'd say Leo Laporte (leolaporte), Jason Calacanis (jasoncalacanis), Shaq (THE_REAL_SHAQ), Wine Library TV's Gary Vaynerchuk (garyvee), Chocolate Rain's Tay Zonday (tayzonday), and CNN's Rick Sanchez (ricksanchezcnn) are the most interesting. They usually update frequently, and quite often actually have something worthwhile to say.

He seems to be on Twitter 24 hours a day and will engage you in pointed debate. The main purpose of his account seems to be to involve people in drawn-out arguments. Be sure to ask him about his puppet :)
