Twitter lists for fun and research.

RESEARCH is a priority in many things, including family history...
One good way to get all your research team together is to create a twitter list. In other words, you take a bunch of tweeps with a similar theme and create a list on Twitter so that all their tweets are displayed on the same page. This helps you find new articles and posts and tips that interest you every day and may help to further your own research in the process.

On my list FAMILY HISTORY CHANNEL you will find lots of family historians who constantly share their news and updates in the form of tweets and the tweets of other family historians they follow as well. This list is not only useful for my own research but is often times just fun to read.

Listing can be useful in many fields like genealogy, arts, crafts, news, sports, poetry, and entertainment. On my art blog is a list of #ART tweets that helps me find new artists and enjoy their work first hand. The same is true with any list, and a list is more focused on a single subject than the home page feed itself.

Once you are added to a list everyone who sees that list becomes a potential reader of your work and shares, and a potential fan and follower. Keep calm and keep tweeting!

Peace
