@Anika: And that's the point or ... the pointlessness of lists as a discovery device. These are people grouped by a topic, but they don't always talk about *that* topic. FriendFeed's FoaF is a far better user discovery mechanism.

Yeah, that can be an issue. I have a political list, knowing that most people on it talk about other stuff, but most of us have known each other for a good 5 years now that it's acceptable.

Ah, got it, I think: @dannysullivan/searchmarketing? Point well taken!

@Rebecca: You're right. And again, I'm happy to be on the list but it shows that while I'm in the right 'category' it doesn't always produce engaging content on that subject.
- AJ Kohn
My lists are mostly made of where I met people or what subjects describe them vs. what they actually do.
- Anika
@LOOK AT ME!: Yes, the former is an interesting strategy, but do you make those lists public? And if so, would that help anyone else? Absolutely a good private list strategy but I just don't see how they are ... followable?
