How to Organize Your Twitter Followers
The Twitter micro-blogging and social networking site is a convenient way to communicate with friends and contacts. Once you've used Twitter for a while, you might find that you've accumulated hundreds of contacts in your "Followers" list. An effective way of organizing your Twitter contacts is to group them into lists. You can create up to 20 different Twitter lists by theme or contact type. Once you've created a list, you can add each of your Twitter contacts to the most relevant list.
