Updated December 29, 2011
Here is a list of Twitter accounts heavily followed by the angel investor & VC community.
To create this list, I used the same methodology as an earlier post (Twitter Users Most Followed by Readers of Hacker News) but remixed with different data. This time I’ve looked at investors on AngelList instead of users on Hacker News.
Many thanks to the fine fellows at AngelList for making their data available.
By the way, if you’re an angel or VC investor with an account on AngelList, check out AngelFlow. AngelFlow is a social dashboard that makes it easy to connect your Twitter graph with your AngelList graph.
This list is available as a CSV file.
