Twitter lists are guaranteed to be the next huge (and I mean HUGE!!!!) game changer for Twitter. When Twitter lists first came out, I thought: “OK, so users can now make lists of other users based on any criteria.” For example a list of companies that are hiring, a list of Onion editorial staff or a list of food trucks in Los Angeles . Big deal, right?
Yes… a very big deal.
How lists will completely change how we use Twitter
- Users can follow a list without having to follow all the users on that list.
- Third party applications will use lists in fun and interesting ways.
- Sites like Listorious will feature a variety of content based on lists.
- Twitter lists will give users additional ways to create value for their followers.
- Twitter lists will add an additional social proof element to all Twitter users.
- Twitter lists will change how we follow streams.
