Twitter is obviously growing rapidily in popularity. According to a recent TechCrunch article, "Twitter's global unique visitors in April, 2009 was a whopping 32 million, up from 19 million in March, 2009". Many different groups within Citrix have begun to embrace Twitter. I use Twitter quite a bit, and have found several different Citrix Twitter accounts that I follow. Below are several recent Twitter accounts started by different departments within Citrix -

@citrixsupport - Mike Stringer, a Senior Director in Technical Support, created this account to provide updates from Citrix Technical Support.

@citrixreadiness - David McGeough from our Dublin office has been very active recently on this account.

@xenappjunkie - Vinny Sosa just started this Twitter account about XenApp.

@xdsupport - XenDesktop support. I have not yet found out who owns this account.

@citrixpartners - This twitter account is specifically for info related to Citrix partners.

@nssupport - Julio Rodriguez recently started this NetScaler related account.

@citrixblogs - This is an automated rss feed account that posts links to every new group blog post on the Citrix Community blogs.

@citrixonline - This account is dedicated to info on GoToMyPC, GoToMeeting, GoToWebinar, and GoView from Citrix Online.

@go_view - This account by Brenda Dentinger focuses on the new GoView product from Citrix Online.

@ctxs - This account is an rss feed of Citrix press releases.

@xenserverarmy - This account posts info specific to XenServer and Essentials for XenServer.

@citrix_synergy - This account posted live updates from Citrix Synergy.
There are several other new accounts that have no or few updates yet.

    My personal twitter is vinnysosa although I use it for people to contact me if needed. I created one for XenApp called xenappjunkie. That is one that I will use to make announcements and such for XenApp.

    Throwing my hat into the "Twitter using Citrite" arena.. I follow most of the "corporate" Citrix accounts as well as the CTPs Rene mentioned. I also follow a lot of other general virtualization evangelists (like Chris Wolf, Chris Hoff, etc.) Most things tech or geek are in my follow list somewhere.

    You can find me on Twitter @ http://www.twitter.com/piffy
