Twitter continues to be an important tool to help us connect with the UK Recruiter community. I'd like to think we use it to help the community (re-tweeting enquiries, requests for help with assignments and answering questions) as much as using it to promote ourselves (networking events, advertising space on the site, questions around research for articles/blogs). Our Twitter network has grown (2287 followers for our UK Recruiter account and 884 for Louise's) but it's a constant challenge to ensure we are following the right people. To help this we've created a list of recruitment related Twitter users (Tweeps) who are happy to be followed by anyone: http://tweepml.org/UK-Recruiters-on-Twitter/
If you log onto Twitter you can follow them all in one go. If you are on Twitter and want to be added to the list you just need to fill in the form: http://tweepml.org/TweepGen/suggest.aspx?g=19eadc4125f24b94b67538acad6a3f1c
Of course this isn't the only way to find recruiters on Twitter. You can do a search on twellow (yellow pages for Twitter) or check out the "lists" created (within Twitter) of some high profile Twitter users. For example the UK Recruiters list from UK Sourcers.
Also, don't forget, there is a Guide to Twitter available via our UK Recruiter Plus site.
