Justin Cox Presents:

People I Wish Were on Twitter

As you may know, I’m a fan of Twitter, the social micro-blogging site. I follow a lot of people who I know and a lot more whom I don’t. Of the people I don’t know, I follow them for various reasons. Some are funny, some are bloggers, some are programers, some are reporters and some are even full fledged celebrities. Despite the number of people I currently follow, there are some people who aren’t on Twitter that I think should be. Without further ado, here they are:

What do you get when you search 'Twitter' on Google Images? iJustine.

• David Crowder
  David Crowder, of David Crowder*Band fame, is a very funny and poignant writer. His book, Praise Habit, was a very fun and insightful read. His witty humor would fit well into my Twitter feed.
• Kevin Smith
  Silent Bob Kevin Smith is one of the funniest writer/directors working in the business. With such fine specimens as Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and Chasing Amy, how could 140 character quips not be good?
• Sir Richard Branson
  What could one of the worlds most eccentric billionaires and smartest businessmen say in 140 characters or less? I don’t really know but I’m sure it’d be interesting.
• Yogi Bera
  Come on, how could this not be a good thing?
• Conan O’Brien
  I’ve always liked Conan and thought that his show is the funniest of all the late night TV, but after seeing him on Inside the Actors Studio I’ve decided that Conan is basically a genius. 140 character quips from him would be pretty much awesome.
• Zach Braff
  The guy is a great writer (see Garden State) a fan of really great music (see Garden State soundtrack or any episode of Scrubs) and probably pretty funny. A Zach Braff Twitter stream would probably be pretty cool.

As a bonus, here’s someone who actually is on Twitter but hasn’t said anything: Joel McHale. Host of The Soup. Need I say more? Granted, this might not really be him, but according to LeVar Burton, it is. He really needs to say something now and then.
