There is so much going on in the Salesforce world, how do you keep up with it? Since caffeine pills and working 20 hour days are discouraged, I use Twitter. It has a large community of Salesforce folks. But you might ask how are you supposed to keep up with all of the people you follow? You could spend all day reading Salesforce tweets. I tend to follow a lot of people and I keep it all organized using lists. I view my lists on HootSuite. I find it easier to look at my lists side by side instead of one at a time on Twitter.
Salesforce Lists to Follow on Twitter
Here are the lists I check daily on Twitter to stay up to date with all things Salesforce. I try to only put people on one list to keep things organized.
1. Salesforce MVPs – Salesforce MVPs Past & Present. MVPs are MVPs for a reason. They have tons of Salesforce knowledge. I try to follow them all.
2. Salesforce Admins – People working in Salesforce every day.
3. Salesforce Developers – Love to listen to what they are tweeting about. They are on top of technology!
4. Salesforce Consultants – It’s interesting to see what other Salesforce consultants are working on. Salesforce is so versatile no two projects are the same.
5. Salesforce Employees – People that work at Salesforce.
6. Salesforce People – Anyone else that tweets about Salesforce.
