    I sit at a computer all day and write code, pull data and run analysis (not hang out in meetings or talk at conference (I decline them left and right), I do – not talk) therefore I have a tendency to tweet a lot instead of getting up and taking breaks – my target market is Marketer not people like me (Data Scientist) – since I write code and apps, it is easy for me to auto-magically give good content not just key word searches, it takes me no time at all so I have plenty of time to do what I make a living at – gleaning insight from messy data :o)

        Thanks for the comment. Claudia is probably deserving. I didn’t really specify the criteria I used, but it was mostly based upon visibility, and the 5 on my list are the ones that appear most frequently in the data science information I read.
