Twitter Lists Explained

You may have heard the buzz ... Twitter "Lists" has landed! As a lover of lists, you know I had to check this out pronto. So what are Twitter Lists??? They are lists that Twitterers are creating of other Twitterers that they want to call out and categorize. For example, I created a list called, "CBH" and added any Hearthside agents that I follow on Twitter.

Now that I have this list, I click on it and see what all of the CBHer's are up to at any given moment on Twitter. Bonus - the list is public, so other people can "subscribe" to my list and get all of the CBHer's too!

For the easy peasy route ...
- Click on Following (people you follow on Twitter)
- Each person will have a little Manage Lists icon (looks like a list ;) on the left side
- Click the Manage Lists icon to see your options











From here, you can ... create a new list OR add this person to one or more lists that you have already created. How easy is that?!

When you click to create a New List, the box below will pop up. Type in your list name - notice how your list will have it's own URL (listed underneath). Set your list privacy and click Create!
















Once you have your lists set up, you can access and edit them easily.
























- Click on the list you want to display
- See what's happening with your list, or edit as needed

















Super fun right?!
Happy Halloween Eve!!!
