It’s been a week of learning, I have read many articles and listened to some great podcasts, as I do every week. This week I just seem to have been flooded with ideas and inspiration.

If you blog and don’t already listen to it, I can highly recommend the BlogcastFM podcast. Updated regularly it has some great interviews with new, upcoming and long-time bloggers from all kinds of niche.

Twitter has been fairly busy this week too and below are 5 of my “Sean’s Week on Twitter” picks for you, SWOT #5, as always please add your own in the comments:
