Twitter lists

[pebbles77]

Hi everyone
So i'm just getting used to Twitter and I've found their 'lists' - you can add your favourite people to a list (this is kept private) and if allows you to click on the list so you just see those peoples tweets so if you only log onto twitter once a day you can always find your favourite people's tweets - rather than scanning down 1000's of tweets.

So I've just created myself a list called 'Mumsnet friends' - and I'm adding all my mumsnet blogging friends so that I can always see what you are tweeting about.

Anyway, I thought if other people were interested we could all put our twitter names and then we can make sure we are all following each other (if we want to).

So to start, mine is:

Hi again Pebbles (we seem to be shadowing each other this evening ;-) )
I'm new to Twitter too and I was going to look into how to do something like this tomorrow... I'm inundated with tweets already!
A Mumsnet friends list is a great idea.
My twitter name is: @journeytostyle

Brilliant, I've just added you :)

Pebbles they're not always private - you have to tick a box to make them private - just so you don't start a list called "those twats that I want to keep my eye on" and have it public by mistake

This might help stealth link for Geekalicious about Twitter lists

typecast - that's absolutely hysterical, can you imagine

I'm just on your website now - i know you talk a lot about blogger, i'm on a wordpress site but am thinking about using google+ - do you have a link to some help about that???

Thanks so much

Wordpress should work fine with G+ but if you're talking about linking the two then you can't do that on any platform as the API (jiggery pokery that lets you post links automatically) isn't available unless you're already using Google products (Blogger is one of these).
