Contribution guidelines?

As this awesome list is about people, not projects, I think you need to be clear about the requirements for being added to the list - as it is a lot more personal!

Are you expecting that anyone can be added or add themselves? Or are there criteria for being ‘awesome’?

Please update "Gregor Adams"

Thank you for including me in this list. It is an honor.

The codepen link is invalid since I left codepen. Since since then it has been used by a spammer.
I want to make sure people don't assume the account has anything to do with me (the account has now been deleted).

Switch Cloudinary Twitter avatars to another service / script

Cloudinary is shutting down support for Twitter avatars, so we need to find another solution for getting the Twitter avatars - maybe they should be scraped using a different service / script somehow

Convert to JSON?

If you do that, it’s easier to use the data for sites etc.
