Many of you know that Twitter has been rolling out a new feature “Twitter Lists” over the past several weeks to a few accounts. Yesterday the big roll out started happening to other accounts and I am happy to report that I now am the proud owner of having the ability to use Lists in my Twitter account.

I have to say Twitter Lists are wonderful!

I haven’t used all of the functionality available in them yet, but I have used them to start segmenting who I follow. This has been great because it gives me the ability to just view the tweets from those in a particular niche at a time. This makes it really easy when using the web interface on twitter.com to see the tweets you want to see. I love to read everyone’s tweets but this way I can group who I follow and then read that group all at one time. This is a great time saver.

If you haven’t been given your Twitter List feature yet it should be there within the next several days. Once you get it you will see how easy it is to create lists and add people to them, you can even add someone to a list when you follow them (best way to do so in my opinion).

Also there is a new tool available where you can see the lists that others have created and follow them too. This is available from listorious.

I am sure I will have more to say on Twitter Lists as I use them more but for now I am giving them a thumbs up.
