The Dark Side Of Twitter Lists
I recently took a much needed hiatus from Twitter because I got super busy with work. Now I'm back. But while I was gone the whole Twitter Lists phenomenon happened. Everyone was talking about the benefits of Twitter lists. No one could even conceive of any possible negative possibilities, which is why I find Michael Gray's post about "How To Use Twitter Lists To Create Reputation Management Problems," so interesting.
If you are concerned with managing your reputation, you need to read this article and consider it carefully.
I have been warning about the possible ease of abuse of Twitter lists since the start. They are lists such as 'fishforest' from users without tweet, including more than 80 people with 22 people following the list, how is this possible?
