BackType

Sometimes finding the right people to follow on BackType can be tough – so we threw together a small tool to help. Now you can visit the Recommendations page to retrieve a list of people who we think you might enjoy following. You’ll get recommendations automatically if you’re logged in and have claimed your comments and/or given us your Twitter username; otherwise, you can manually enter a Twitter username to retrieve recommendations.

Lots of people have discovered BackType through Twitter; in fact, we have our own account @backtype that we like to use to get feedback and help you out when things go wrong.

So we thought Twitter would be a great place to share the comments you write. Now you can visit your account page to setup auto-posting to Twitter in daily or weekly digests. You can also tweet any comment individually – just click the tweet link beneath the comment.
