How do you follow your favorite people in the social community?

I was on facebook looking at TLO's status update today and thought "I wonder how many other people use Twitter/Facebook/myspace/blogs to share their thoughts with their fans. I know many people follow them on sites such as SC:L (such as our tournament section) or teamliquid.net. But outside of the norms, are there any more individual ways that people follow their favorite esports angle? I'm curious how much is out there and if there's any new feeds to follow.

I don't. Never even thought about it. Then again, I'm the only person left in the world who doesn't have a Spacebook or MyFace.

i think im a fan of Day9 on Facebook, but that hasnt really amde me follow what he does any closer.

with watchign as much GSL as i do, im gradually becoming brainwashed into suing twitter more, and so i might start doing that, as i already ave an account...

as is though, Reddit.com/r/starcraft is where its at for me, it really serves as a nice aggregation of it all; if something cool happens in the sc community, reddit will tell me, fast, and get witty about it.

by contrast, SCL for me is quite tiny, yet, its the place i know the best, with people i feel plenty closer to than i do to other nerds.

I'm a fan of Day9 and Tyler on Facebook. Got a twitter account and only use it to follow a few people; JP, Day9, Tyler, Incontrol, Huk, MC, DJWheat.

In terms of news TL and JP's 5 day a week show SCCenter has me pretty well covered.

Twitter, following @TeamLiquidnet.

I really couldn't care less about any of them. It's fun to watch matches that pit big players against each others but that's pretty much it for me.

Though I am a MC fanboy, I don't really follow him or anybody. Just watching GSL occasionally is pretty much it for me.

...not the only one Tychus.

On topic I only watch you tube videos of folks I'm interested in but I don't have any subscriptions. I just watch when the mood strikes. I also listen to State of the Game and Starcast podcasts, but again just when I feel like it.

I follow Day9 Funday Mondays, Stateofthegame podcast and watch the GSL. I don't really follow individuals outside of those, whether it's facebook, twitter or other.

MC's tweets are hilarious. FACE MOVIE STAR FACE.





I follow TL, Day9, and kelly (come at me bros) on Twitter; i'll check some of the other pros occasionally. I just check my phone every now and then, don't really do much else.


Though, TL had some pretty funny stuff for MLG. I'm mainly thinking of the tweet making fun of IdrA.

You get occasional interesting things from twitter such as this....
AskJoshy JoshSuth
Oh, btw this happened: "Are you CrunCher?" - IdrA "Yeah, can we be friends?" - CrunCher "Fuck you." - IdrA on the walk back from drinks

LOL. Idra idra. MC is hilarious in his tweets. "I'm GOD Protoss" "Wow you very pretty~ from?" "tommorow WCS semifinal MC vs MarineKIng Korean time 6:10 Start! maybe 3:0 MC win". The guy is so confident and chatting up the ladies..... ;)

See, that's the type of stuff I chuckle at Jackhammer. On TLO's facebook comments, TLO seems a lot friendlier than I ever expected. Almost overly friendly :)

I more or less just use twitter to follow everyone that I want insight on what they are planning. I have literally just tweeted one time ever, and that was to support day9 when he was trying to win the shorty award. I have some friends that found out their favorite player's B.Net ID and virtual stalk them on there "IdrA just logged on" and stuff like that. I have the opinion that if someone wants you to know their ID they will tell it to you. Even when I played with Gifted I knew his ID before he gave it to me, but I never added him until he himself gave it to me. It don't feel right to add someone without their permission, to me at least.

I really just follow people whose streams I watch (iNcontroL, Tyler, IdrA, DJWheat, Day9, JP) and alot of the organizations that they are involved with as well (State of the Game, Kings of Tin, Team EG, TL.net, GosuCoaching.com, NASL.tv) and I was never more happy that I followed these people until this weekend with MLG having stream issues. Anna Prosser (iNcontroL's gf and reporter for Kingston HyperX at MLG) and the admins of TL.net were posting constant updates of the games. This weekend alone was worth me ever getting twitter.

LOL. Me too. But to be fair I tweeted once more to tell NASL their payment system sucked.

Lol... This guy is so full of himself. I think he's probably paid to act that way though.

This guy is also sooo good : ) But i think it's mostly meant in a humorous way.

Hmm I can't remember my password or email for Twitter, so I can't really say that I use it :)
But I think I "follow" Day9, and mayhaps one other :p

nope don't have time for that too busy playing and lossing
