It's been about two months since we launched deviantART's Twitter Network. We've been gathering feedback about the accounts and recently made some changes based on your requests.

1. Some deviants were concerned about the frequency of tweets. After following multiple accounts, some felt that their Twitter timeline contained too many tweets from the Twitter Network. So based on your feedback, the accounts will now be tweeting slightly less frequently. All eight accounts are designed to tweet evenly throughout the day to reduce the amount of noise in your Twitter stream. I recommend choosing your favorite accounts to follow if you're still concerned with frequency.

2. We originally launched five categories to start, and we wanted to see which categories you thought should be added next. By popular request, we've added these three accounts:

NEW:
@dA_literature
@dA_crafts
@dA_resources

@dA_digital
@dA_photos
@dA_traditional
@dA_comics
@dA_fanart

Additional feedback is welcome!

One issue that's been brought up frequently is that some users get featured multiple times. I'm looking into a way to fix this, but the software we're using to run these accounts doesn't allow us to do this easily. I am looking into a work around.

Remember: These accounts are fully automated.
