Social Media School: Twitter Lists

27/04/2010 | Posted by Simple

Back in November 09 Twitter launched “Twitter lists” as a new way to organise who you follow on Twitter.  The lists offer a way for you to bunch together other users on Twitter into groups, so you can get an overview of what they are up to.  Providing a real time stream of their tweets.   Pretty handy if you follow over 1000 people or as we call them tweople or tweeps.

Recently we have been setting up some Twitter Lists from our Simple Twitter account separating some of the people we follow into handy groups related to areas we and our Simple VIPs are interested in.

In summary: If you are on Twitter follow one of our lists or follow the individuals on our lists so their updates appear in your twitter stream.   We are updating these lists weekly so make sure you check back.

If you are not sure about Twitter, or perhaps not even heard of it (!!) then go visit the “Getting Started Information” from the lovely tweeps at Twitter:

We absolutely love Twitter  as it has provided us with a new avenue to promote Simple VIP and all the fun things going on over here .   It has also allowed us to connect with people on a more personal level.  There are many people on Twitter whom we would call our close friends (New twitter list coming soon),  and along with making friends and connections we have been able to provide support to others,  have a laugh  and  promote the people worth promoting.  It’s just fantastic.

Something that we have been really keen to do on Twitter is to understand more about the beauty bloggers and how they wish to be contacted from brands like ourselves. Several companies are now contacting bloggers as they have started to understand more about the possibilities available of word of mouth spread from within the bloggers communities. To find out more about our approach in contacting bloggers read this blog post (coming soon).

If you have joined Twitter do pop by and say hello it will be lovely to see you.  Feel free to recommend tweeps to us and we will do the same in return.  Don't forget too that we are updating our Simple VIP Connections page, so if there are any blogs you would like to recommend let us know about them at this post here

This blog post is part of a Social Media School we are running in April, we are writing a few Social Media School blog posts in relation to a large, massive, huge campaign we are launching in May. Sshh it’s a secret........

As a recent Twitter converter, I am still trying to get to grips with it!!!! Must persevere, since clearly it is such a valuable, useful and important tool for brand, companies etc. to really connect with their audience and keep them updated:) (thinking ahead to my future career!! lol)
Great, SIMPLE idea to make things less complicated!! :)

twitter is great

12/06/2010 | Posted by Miss jennifer wheeler
i dont like twitter as it just seems like another form of facebook.

12/06/2010 | Posted by Miss Zoe Charnock
i prefer facebook to twitter personally but good to cover all types of social networking

10/06/2010 | Posted by Mrs Nikki Hayes
Now I hate Twitter personally, I'm a Facebook addict instead, lol! What I like about Facebook is the ability to post/view pictures and videos, you can only post a link to them on Twitter and these often don't work properly. If you start up on Facebook I'll happily become a fan ;o)

08/06/2010 | Posted by SC
Twitter's great fun, like the Simple tweets!

07/06/2010 | Posted by Ms Anna Shepherd
I know the basic idea of Twitter is that people send short messages into 'cyberspace' which others can follow, but that's about it. I think for me the jury is still out as to the usefulness of Twitter for me.

07/06/2010 | Posted by Miss Fatima Moosa
I don't personally have Twitter but i think its a great idea!!! :)

06/06/2010 | Posted by Miss Tara Coleman
I don't have twitter but i have facebook i think its easier to use :) !!

05/06/2010 | Posted by Miss Sarah Leslie
Twitter seems to be a great way of getting stuff across to consumers; partuicularly if you tweet offers or competitions people will re-tweet and increase brand exposure.

04/06/2010 | Posted by Nadia Lino

I don't think many people use twitter but good idea.

25/05/2010 | Posted by Anna
I dont often use twitter but for companies to start noticing beauty bloggers is great, also it would be good to raise awareness of the brand by promoting it via youtube, there's some great make up artists etc on there that millions of people watch their videos and listen to their tips and purchase the products they recommend.

25/05/2010 | Posted by Dits
Its something i have been meaning to learn but just haven't got round to, but i guess it needs to be regular to enjoy.

25/05/2010 | Posted by Miss Rachael Hodgson
I might join twitter- haven't tried it yet!

23/05/2010 | Posted by Miss Amy Mitchell
I am currently following Simple on Twitter, but still don't get the whole 'lists' thing...

04/05/2010 | Posted by Miss tania hamzah
