what is the point? here’s the twitter cycle: 1) friends and colleagues talk about tweeting. 2) you check it out and say i don’t get it. 3) you eventually jump in and tweet because you can’t get away from the buzz. 4) first you try to be witty and insightful then you realize that you still aren’t. 5) then you here its good for your business so you tweet some more. 6) then you realize tweeting is completely narcissistic and your ‘followers’ are so consumed with being followed that they don’t read your tweets or click on your insightful links. Because they are at step 4 and very consumed with their recently discovered wit and Steven Wright-like humor.

Another Don here, I’m in Ireland though and second Joes point on SimplyZesty getting out there and doing something…surely you can’t knock that…lists are lists…it’s how you plan to monetise something that I am most interested in.

The next step for twitter lists is to allow people to browse people by most popular list names they are in. List names are effectively to crowdsource people tagging.
For example, lets say 10 people added someone to their own “tech” list. What that would create is a tag for that person “tech”. So, then I could browse people that have a tech tag + linux tag + city tag for example.
Hope they will add a way to untag yourself!

This would be a fantastic idea, if our website wasn’t available. Geofollow allows users to list their location, and categorize yourself by interests.

It’s completely free to list yourself, and you can bulk follow users by location.

Not only that but the self-imposed 72 hour deadline smacks of self promotion with no glimmer of a desire for public resource in sight.

What a load of negative bullshit in the comments.
SimplyZesty is a kick ass blog. Niall and Lauren might not “get it right” all the time, but they work their asses off and fire out some fantastic and helpful blog posts especially for small biz like mine.

“Pretty sure lists were not meant for this…” ah shove it Jason!

Like someone above said, they have missed Scotland, Wales etc off the list, but I think thats all the reporting and blogging thats talking about the lists, as their site is called ‘English Twitter population’, not UK or GB twitter population which would be a different thing!

Twitter will no doubt add this sort of functionality themselves in the months to come, or rather, re-introduce it – 18 months ago it was possible to search for users by location, but Twitter removed the option.
