The problem: You're new to Twitterville and you don't know where to begin networking with other people who share your interest in Israel and the Mideast.
The solution: Follow the following "tweople;" more importantly, however, is to check out who follows them, as well as who they're following. It means investing some time — intuitively clicking on certain people to find out more — but the due diligence is worth it.
As you check out Twitter's Israel scene, be sure to follow MediaBackspin, HonestReporting, our colleagues at HonestReporting Canada and look at who we're networking with. This list is in no particular order — it's just my part in helping newcomers to Twitter put the "social" in "social media."

There are a lot other twitterers worth following, but the list got unwieldy after 20. Want to plug anyone else(including yourself)? Post your recommendations in the comments section.
