These days, companies are using social media (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Google+, blogs etc.) to share news, updates, eBooks, and other information with the world.  As a company, we depend on information posted via social media to help us keep up-to-date on the cloud computing industry.  If you are fairly new to social media, where do you start?  Here is our list of favorite cloud computing blogs and Twitter accounts to follow:
