Twitter has launched an optional feature on their platform. You can now opt-in to receive a weekly email with suggestions on Twitter accounts that you might want to follow.

The company said that these suggestions would be based on your activity on Twitter and the contacts that you have imported to their platform in the past.

Twitter said:

This weekly email highlights a handful of people you may know who use Twitter. You can choose to follow any of the suggested people and you can find more people you may know on twitter.com. Suggestions are based on signals like who your friends follow and the contact information imported by people you know. For example, if several people you know follow someone, you may also know them and want to follow them too. There’s no telling who you might find on Twitter, so open this weekly message for an ongoing source of great accounts to follow.

You can manage this setting here.
