Some of Time's favorite Twitter users.

If you thought Twitter was just a place to meet people, then think again.  These days, Twitter is everything from a one-stop source for breaking news to a customer service outlet, with a dash of humor thrown in.  As more and more people hop on the Twitter bandwagon, from winning celebrities to normal folks like you and me, the murky waters become more difficult to navigate.  How do you know who to follow and who to eschew?  Well, fortunately, Time Magazine has made a list of their favorite 140 Twitter feeds.

The Time list is comprehensive and broken down into easy-to-track categories.  Everything from politicians and pundits to fictional characters and celebrities gets their own list, and you’ll find everyone from author Neil Gaiman and Starbucks to Drunk Hulk and Homer Simpson.  Of course, given Time’s list of science-based Tweeters, you could also learn something when you’re through getting your laughs.

That’s what’s so great about Twitter; there’s something for everyone even if you’re not quite sure what you want!  You can even follow the official @popfi Twitter account, should you feel so inclined.  It’s no Old Hoss Radbourn, but sometimes it’s worth reading.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
