Well, if you continue to live outside of social media trends, you might not know Twitter has rolled out it’s new latest functionality in the form of lists - and it’s all the rage.  Of course, it didn’t take long for users to complain about the list option - it’s interface, accessibliity and how it inevitably becomes a popularity contest of sorts.  In effort to get people back to the homepage, seems as though the leaders at Twitter have come up with something that’s both helpful and stirring some buzz.

In reality, the lists are great for new Twitter users who wonder what they should be doing there.  Lists provide a quick way to find interesting people to follow, by category and interests… enter tourism.   For those looking to be in the know on tourism trends, deals and more but are new to Twitter, lists provide a great solution.  If you’re not sure what your handle (read: name) should be or who to follow and how to gain followers, lists are the perfect solution to browse a selection of tourism enthusiasts and pick who’s right for your niche.  From tourism blogs to specific countries, hotels, influential tourism leaders and travel columnists, it’s all just a tweet away. 

Today’s Jaunted newsletter spotlighted the top five tourism lists which serve as a great kick start.  With that as ammo, you should have a great base to get out and start tweeting to build buzz and awareness of your destination, carrier or hospitality clients!  Or follow me @EEPR_17 and check out the influential travelers on my lists!
