By the way, this is my twitter link if someone want to follow me: http://twitter.com/haimingj

Adam Kayce May 29th, 2008

“shameless self-promotion”? You’re absolutely right, cat.

But why not? http://twitter.com/adamkayce

Prescott Perez-Fox May 29th, 2008

http://www.twitter.com/scottperezfox – thanks for the add.

Meet Women May 29th, 2008

sweet list, and replys

mave May 29th, 2008

In most cases, Twitter is improved by adding more people. That’s part of what makes it good. “Shameless self-promotion” isn’t really a bad thing in this case, when it means more options and more people to meet.

My twitter: http://twitter.com/mavegibson

Nicklas May 29th, 2008

Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think, that one of the “Designers” to follow on Twitter from the original list have thought it suitable to use the Twitter logo – including the tree which the feathered creature is perched upon – as the principal component in the main banner on her personal portfolio website.

As far as I can work out this banner precedes the announcement on this page and feels remarkably like the Merriam-Webster’s definition of “plagiarism”: “to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own”

Or have I missed something?

Daydream May 30th, 2008

I’m flying the graphic design flag at Twitter…

http://www.twitter.com/daydreamgfx

Adam May 30th, 2008

Nicklas, I’m sure it’s just a stock image, which couldn’t be further from plagiarism.

Grace Smith May 30th, 2008

Nicklas i have been using that image from istockphoto.com for the last two years way before twitter, its a stock image by John Oxton. I kind of fell in love with its simplicity and thought it would be a great image as a little intro for my website, i have grown to love it even more so i couldnt imagine changing it!

People often email me about it and i point them straight to John’s work on istock, i think twitter fell in love with it as much as i did!

Please dont accuse someone of plagiarism which is a serious accusation until you have actual facts.

Nicklas May 30th, 2008

Curious, I found an illustration by Simon Oxley on iStock. http://xrl.us/bmadu Maybe John Oxton (The Web Developer from the Cotswolds?) had made a similar one available two years ago?

Jesting aside, I’m glad to hear that it was just a case of using stock illustration and not plagiarism in this particular instance.

Grace Smith May 30th, 2008

My bad i was listening to the rissington podcast at the time and must have had john’s name on my brain! Yep i meant to say simon oxley, i actually mention the image and credit it in my stylesheet as well.

Vandelay Design May 30th, 2008

Well Nicklas and Grace, I’m glad that situation had a happy ending. I honestly didn’t know if the image was plagiarized or not after Nicklas’ comment. I thought about deleting the comment but I very rarely do that and I hate to kill commentary if it’s not necessary.

Grace Smith May 31st, 2008

No worries steven, its just a bit upsetting to be called a plagiarist and have to defend myself for using a stock image but im glad its sorted.

Kai Chan Vong June 2nd, 2008

Is Ryan Carson really a designer? Nice chap…

Huge shock not to see Jina Bolton (twitter.com/sushimonster ) or Andy Clarke (/malarky) in there… they do both contribute to .Net magazine!

Also think the word designer is really easy to use for anyone and I’d quite like to see some separation to help clarify who is more of what skill. For example: I get that Eric Meyer is more of a CSS front end developer than designer… maybe he’d argue that. A designer, to me is someone like Elliot Jay Stocks or Larissa Meek.

Vandelay Design June 2nd, 2008

Khai,
Good point. There are several here who are probably better classified as developers. I chose the word designer to also include the graphic designers on the list who aren’t truly web designers, but I agree with you.

Mike Archibald July 6th, 2008

Ah I’ve got it – if you post it all goes mental.

A u d e e July 7th, 2008

A friend just asked me a favour to find a designer to be interviewed on his website, I just remember this post (that I read previously) and jumped back in! ;)

Graham Smith September 2nd, 2008

Hi Steven
Wanted to say how greatful I am for your Twitter post and actually including me in it. It has actually been of enourmous use to me to have so many more people following…

I was a little surprised at what was going on initially as I started to get so many follow requests.

The last couple of months have been very challenging for personal reason, hence why I seem to have dropped of the face of the earth for some weeks.

Things slowly getting back to normal, motivated, re-igniting things where the flame had died and generally winding the engine up.

So a huge thank you Steven again for including me in this list, a belated Thanks. You’ll be seeing me back on your other Blog also in time, back to my usual waffling comments etc.

Going to be ReTweeting this post etc as it’s so cool and have met so many great people, feels like it’s helped me more than the people who were mean to follow me.

Regards
Graham

I’m not entirely sure how my name ended up on this list as I keep my Tweets protected and only add people I know. However with so many people wanting to add my on Twitter, in large part due to this and similar articles, I decided to open up my profile and see how it goes.

Wow. These lists are awesome. It’s harder to add them all than it was on another site because the other site just had little pop-up windows. Yours opens the twitter accounts in a new browser window and it takes twice as long. (Just a word of advice!)

Ben Higham February 19th, 2009

I’m starting to question the value of following all the famous designers and developers. Some of them are interesting some of the time, but unless you’re also an internet celebrity there doesn’t seem to be much interaction.

I used to follow a lot influencial designers and developers and I although I respect them a lot I began to realise that neither party benefited. Twitter should be about discussions, not broadcasts.

Having said that, my twitter is http://twitter.com/benhigham/ :)

Anthony McMurray April 6th, 2009

Great list you have here, a lot of great designers! I’m just curious as I look through the list a lot of them have a few thousand followers but they only follow a few hundred.

I may be wrong but I thought the whole idea of Twitter and social media was to network and be social?

Vandelay Design April 6th, 2009

Anthony,
Everyone has a different purpose and approach with Twitter. Personally, I don’t follow hundreds or thousands of people because it makes things too cluttered and overwhelming. I’d rather be able to effectively follow a smaller number of people.

Anthony McMurray April 6th, 2009

I agree that everyone is different when it comes to Twitter. My only point was that the ratio of 10K + followers to 300 following (for whoever) makes the person look like a snob. It is the same for Facebook or Linkedin. I can see where it could become harder to manage by following thousands but not everyone posts to Twitter every day. I suppose to each his own. :)

Vandelay Design April 6th, 2009

Anthony,
I see your point, but I don’t think that makes someone look like a snob. Some people don’t seek out thousands of followers, it just happens because of who they are. If they follow all of those people in return it may make Twitter essentially useless to them, depending on how they use the service and what they want to get out of it.

I added most to my own designers list, although a few I added to my developers, marketers and entrepreneurs lists, as well.

If your tweets weren’t in English, I probably didn’t follow you, but I probably added everyone to a list.

I am a freelance artist, graphic/web designer, brand expert, domainer, etc… as well. Just like you, I wear so many hats I forget all the stuff I do. ;)

My favorite thing is cartooning and I am still learning Flash, which is really why I got into web design, I want to animate.

What is the difference between a web designer and web developer to you?

To me, a web designer designs brands. He/she styles and formats the look and feel of a website using the available tools at hand. CMS, UIX, forms and e-commerce can all be styled and designed easily using common scripts.

A developer codes in logic, not styles or formatting. He/She makes the website dynamic, active, gives it personality and allows customization according to user prefs. If you are doing your own Javascript instead of using a framework, you are a developer, too. And yet, developers are often using frameworks in .net, ruby on rails, etc.

So perhaps the best definition is how you see yourself? Afterall, isn’t the guy who made the website work and do all those great things that a static website can’t do as much responsible for a website’s feel?

The matter is simple, often the lines are blurred. Often we do both. Some only specialize in one or the other.

And so if you design or develop websites, or even if you do both, I offer a link to those who like sharing through groups and lists:

http://groups.google.com/group/sitedesign

;) Thanks for this list, it helped me fill-out mine, as well.

Thanks for the suggestions! I’m new to Twitter and love the help. ;)

Question, I found designer Andre Bean’s (Andre Vaseghi) twitter page too, but I don’t know if it’s a fake page or not. Is there way to find out if it’s really him before I click to follow? The boyfriend and I got to attend his design workshop in Washington DC & fell in love (BOTH OF US! LOL) – total groupies :)

If there are others that love his stuff, please let me know if it’s really him or what you’d do to find out. THANKS ALL!

This is the page we found:

Great list, thanks for posting. Nonetheless I think there is something to be said for following less ‘famous’ and mainstream designers. If you browse through Etsy there are some ridonkulously talented designers on there. But this list is still a really valuable resource. I’ve bookmarked this page so I can have a look at my faves on a daily basis for design inspiration.

Vandelay Website Design December 3rd, 2010

Carol,
Good point, I agree with you. Only following the mainstream people is not a very effective approach.
