Thanks so much for the comments! I’m really happy to hear this is useful.

One update I will make is that there appears to be some confusion about whether following a list (all at once) means you now follow everyone on the list – and I thought you did, but apparently not. I don’t think this makes much difference in terms of actual usage – in other words you’ll see the full stream from a list just like you would if you individually followed everyone on that list – and you can still @ reply any one regardless of whether you follow them or not – but these quirks are still to be figured out. Also it looks like you can’t communicate with a list (eg send a directly tweet to a list). I’ll keep playing with this stuff and keep everyone updated.

Gotta thank you for such a great list of association people, Maddie – I’d started to put one together, just wanting to have a way to keep an eye on the pulse of association issues (if that’s not mixing too many metaphors), but dumped my fledgling list without regrets as soon as I saw yours – very useful & well curated! Thanks for putting in all that work!

First off, great post. I love how you’ve continued to explain how you are a content curator. I’ve been delaying making my lists and you’ve motivated me.

This ties into the post I just wrote (pre-published), but was inspired by your excellent GREader sharing (sneak peek here: http://jer979.com/igniting-the-revolution/contentcurator/

Lastly, thank you for putting me in such a great list! I am honored.

Maddie,

This is the first post I’ve read where someone shares their lists and why they’ve made them. Having users grouped so thoughtfully makes me think that #followfriday will soon die out.
