WeFollow is a simple site that lists top Twitter users by tags.

Simple tweet @wefollow with the top three tags you'd like to be associated with.

Categories listed on the front page include news, celebrities, sports, and politics. You can also search by tags.

This site was created by Digg founder Kevin Rose. He says it's still buggy. I think it's a cool idea, and I want to see it take off once users start adding themselves to his database.

Topics: Data Management, Data Centers, Enterprise Software, Hardware, Software, Storage, Social Enterprise

Errrr... What does it do?

Sorry, maybe I missed a couple of paragraphs, where the journalist* (*used because I cannot think of a better term) tells us what this thing is or what it does. Some sort of aim, intenetion, function, expected use, expected outcome, pros and cons.... No, lets forget all that and just advertise a buddy's website seems to be the order of the day.

I used to think there were some standards here, but seems that I was either wrong or things are slipping.

RE: Kevin Rose creates Twitter directory

In real wefollow contains too many noise due to tags isn't best way to classify twitter profiles.

Check twitwho [http://twitwho.net], there is no spam there thanks to moderation, and they use tree structure to simplify searching for appropriate category.
