June 1, 2012

The #FollowFriday Series highlights today’s up-and-coming, active and all-around noteworthy Twitter accounts the AudioAcrobat staff deems worthy of following; while at the same time peering deeper into the soul(-cial media) of each account and providing a brief-yet-informative analysis.

Welcome back for the twenty second #FollowFriday tweet / WordPress mashup of 2012 here on the AudioAcrobat Weblog!

With the short work week behind us, it’s hard not to want to engage in Memorial Day weekend Pt. II over the next (72) hours, and what better way to show off the awesomeness of your weekend than with short bursts of video!

This week’s featured #FF Twitter account blurs the line between Instagram and Socialcam by integrating Instagram-like filters for your cover photos (albumart for videos, if you will)… and that’s just the tip of the iceberg of cool features these guys have to offer!

In today’s post, we will dive deeper into the tweets of Venice, CA-based mobile application, Viddy (@viddy) and the Twitter accounts they have chosen to follow … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) behind a company in-stride with the winners of the race to become “Instagram for video”.

Yep.  That’s right, we just said it … “soulcial media”.  We also said, “a company in-stride with the winners of the race to become ‘Instagram for video’” in the same sentence.

Conclusion

In summary, it looks as though @viddy likes to follow Twitter accounts in the fields of technology, media and communications.  Developers seem to be commonly found within this selection, as well as photographers and early adapters of popular photo sharing social network, Instagram.  There’s plenty of cool kids and Japanese geniuses sprinkled throughout as well, just in case there was ever a question of whether or not these guys like to have fun, because it appears as though they most certainly do.


That’s a pretty impressive list, right?  It is pretty specific though … Perhaps you’d like to recommend a Twitter account to profile during an upcoming #FollowFriday?  If so, please comment below or tweet us up!
