I'll provide you a short list of some of my favorite people to follow on Twitter from who I learn a great deal:

@heatherhuhman - Career expert who focuses on advice for Gen Y and for those seeking entry-level jobs

@JohnSumser - Editor of HR Examiner who is always on the cutting edge of HR trends.

@jaybaer - social media expert with the number one blog on social media, convinceandconvert.com. He is a great presenter who explains social media's significance both powerfully and simply.

@briansolis - social media expert who focuses on the sociology of social media and its influence on human behavior. Brian focuses on research and studies making keen observations about the implications of social media. He focuses on business but his insight is universal.

@DanSchawbel - Expert on personal branding for your career. Dan focuses on social media and personal branding strategies to help people build their careers.

That's my short recommendation list and I think you can learn a great deal from these people. I'd love to see who you recommend, who you plan to start incorporating into your PLN architecture, and/or what you think about some of my recommendations.
