After making hundreds of #FollowFriday recommendations on Twitter over the last several months, it finally dawned on us to integrate our #FF efforts into this nifty WordPress.com weblog we contribute to several times each week.
Last week’s feature focused on the worldwide leader in software, services, and solutions — Microsoft — and was so well received that we are able to justify making a continuing “trend” out of our weekly #FollowFriday tweets finding a more glorified home here on our WordPress weblog.
In today’s posting, we will not only share this week’s featured #FollowFriday account, @google, but also take our readers in for a closer look at twenty five of the three hundred and nine Twitter accounts @google is currently following … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) of “the world’s #1 ranking website” (according to Alexa.com).
Yep. We just said it … “soulcial media”. We also said “the world’s #1 ranking website” in the same sentence.

More about Google:
Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin named the search engine they built “Google,” a play on the word “googol,” the mathematical term for a 1 followed by 100 zeros.
