I’m new to Portland (technically I still live in Chicago!) but the tech scene here seems to be kickin’! Thanks so much for all the suggested follows!

Nice Post. A month or so ago I stumbled on a great site that allowed me to search my local area for current twitter users but forgot to book mark the site. Still looking. http://www.twitter.com/portlandbroker

Thanks for the info, Josh and Rick!

I added TwitterBerry and it seems pretty good…only thing is I wish it had “homepage” that I can start out on with a summary of activites.

With Mobile access and a Facebook App, I am already starting to like it!

@Jeff – Rick covered it pretty well WRT the RSS feeds, etc. I’d just like to throw one more Twitter tool out there for everyone, that I find essential.

Terraminds.com will let you do a search of all tweets on Twitter for a particular word (day, your name) and generates an RSS feed you can subscribe to for that search. MUCH better and more reliable than Twitter’s built-in means of doing that (tracking, and @replies).

Also, I use Twitteriffic, which shows me tweets @myusername right in my main “timeline”, which the Twitter web page (and all its derivatives) do not. Handy.
