WHAT IS IT?
Twitter lists is a new feature which lets you organise users you’re following into lists. The feature allows you to compile the Twitter streams of selected users into your own categories.

Twitter is one of the most talked about topics at the moment, with celebrity endorsements, political campaigns, breaking news coverage; countless how-tos, helpful hints and tutorials and introductory literature.
Harnessing Twitter for business use preoccupies many a suit’s mind, including my own.

I felt cut off and isolated, like I was missing out on so many events and valuable information during this downtime. Of course [...]

This cartoon is currently spreading like wildfire! It’s pretty funny and you’ll appreciate it if you use Twitter, or have no clue what is it, or don’t like it at all. In any case, it’s being talked about everywhere.
