The many moods of @pauloCanning

Twitter has started its mass roll out of lists and I just created my first of public sector people (and hangers on) I follow.

I laughed out loud when I clicked through to see I'd been already added onto 28 existing lists - and what those list titles are. According to some of my followers, I am alternately:

• international
• technology
• gov-and-local-gov 
• egov 
• publicsector 
• accessibility 
• tech 
• militant-gays 
• gov2010 
• techpolitics 
• localgoveratti 
• social-networkers 
• techies 
• work 
• ukgov20 
• localgovgeeks 
• skeptics 
• localgovweb 
• socialmedia 
• publicsector 
• localgov-ish 
• epicvisionaries 
• politics 
• media 
• accessibility 
• public-sector 
• it 
• gov-uk

Keep 'em guessing is obviously a winning stratagem :]

Lists are really useful for finding others around a specific topic. listorious.com is a good place to find ones already created and there's ones for top egovernment people, government bodies etc.

The one I've created for UK public sector workers and contractors I grew through following links to other's lists in this area. Listorious has several others created around the 'government' theme.

I haven't analysed this but I've noticed that from following my list others have added people found there to their following and hence made connections which they might not otherwise have made.
