We're unveiling a new kind of feature here. The Tribeca Film Festival is underway here in New York and we've assembled a passel of movie insiders in attendance who are Twittering about everything they see.

This is all sort of an experiment, but the idea is that you can follow everything our group — which includes, for starters, directors, producers, and other film industry types — tweets about the festival in our Tribeca Twitter Room or on Twitter itself by following StalkingTFF which will (soon, tech tells me) collect all of their Tribeca-related tweets.

As we go along, we may be adding more people (and if you're attending the festival and would like to be added to the list, email me) but without further ado, I'd like to introduce the fine group of people who've very nicely agreed to be a part of this:
