    Great List. Thanks.
    FYI: The first link (LordAlex) reads @leebrimelow.

  2. You miss David Hugh Martin from Fantasy Interactive:

  3. By the way, the url from LordAlex is Ok but says @@leebrimelow, =)

  4. Loyal Moses says:

    The button / link to @LordAlex needs to be remedied. At the time of this post it was @leebrimelow.

    Very helpful post btw.

  5. mpc says:

    I am also an Envato member and I tweet about flash ;) @mprocreation

  6. Wot no Keith Peters??!! @bit101 he is the daddy of all flash tweeters!! Also Ralph Hauwert @UnitZeroOne – PV3D Don! ….!

  7. That list isn’t bad–I think you hit a lot of active Flash folks–but some barely tweet at all. Just to pick on my friend R Blank. He’s definitely a key influence in the industry–but he’s had only 10 updates on twitter… as of yet, you won’t miss much if you don’t follow him.

    Thanks!

      That’s a good point, but as he fitted into the small group recommended by Adobe I thought him worth mentioning. Perhaps not worth following though..

  8. Hey!!! its a cool recopilation the best of best!!! =) Greetings from Mexico!

  9. Thanks for putting me on the list but you should add these people as well: @Quasimondo @joseeight @newmovieclip @Michael_Plank @UnitZeroOne @Powerflasher @MrNonRespondo @Seantron just to name a few.

  14. Thanks for putting me on the list!

    In addition to this list, you may also want to check out my Adobe On Twitter list http://bit.ly/adobeontwitter

  15. fr says:

    we want good tutorials, like AS 3.0 slideshow, gallery and accardions, not cheap posts like this!!!

    My apologies to Tom Green, whose rightful position in the Adobe’s Top of the Class section was overlooked..

    @TomGreen

  17. JW says:

    Stop already with the promotion of this useless hype called Twitter. It’s a pathetic waste of time. And what Fr said, this kind of stuff doesn’t belong on a tutorialsite!

  18. Clemente G says:

    Quite an honor, Thanks for including me on the list.

  19. Thanks for putting our team on your list :) @powerflasher

  20. I would just like to say thanks for including me on the list, it is a real honour to be included with some of the real legends of the flash community, so thanks Ian.

  21. MocaLoca says:

    Thank you for the plug even thou I have not lived up to the title at all :) Since I left the Flash team, I have been working on http://www.photoshop.com. Please check it out and spread the word!

  22. “Is it cool if we put you on this list?”
    “No… it’s really cool that you put me on this list.”
    Thanks guys, glad you’ve enjoyed all the tweeting! It really is a great list of people active in the Flash/Flex community.

  23. honoured but i tend to use twitter as a complete link dump. those without a sense of humour, don’t bother following…

  24. Thanks for the great list! Love the Envato Twitterers!

  25. Flanture says:

    I do follow only flash related tweeters as myself, so this is the list made for people like me. Thanks.

      Good to see your name crop up again Pierre! We do indeed follow @johnlindquist, but possibly not when this list was made. He’ll certainly feature on the updated version :)
