The best way I’ve found to learn and grow is to surround myself with people smarter than me. Something I’ve discovered is that this doesn’t alway have to mean people I know, people I work with, or people I am friends with at the moment. Thanks to Twitter, I can surround myself with a veritable University of genius by following the right people.

The fine folks at Web Design Ledger have assembled a list of 50 Web Designers and Developers to follow on Twitter. And while the list is good, I did notice a few heavy hitters that were absent from the list.

Notably:

• Dan Cedarholm – @simplebits
• Andy Budd – @andybudd
• Cameron Moll – @cameronmoll
• Andy Clarke – @malarkey

Also, I follow this guy who has an incredible talent for aggregating creative links, mostly around web technologies. He has close to 50,000 follows with good reason. Nicholas is relentless.

• Nicholas Patten – @nicholaspatten

Who do you follow for web design or development inspiration?
