Lists - I'm liken' 'em!

Why are people attracted to "list posts"?

I don't look very often now at lists of new tech. tools, since I know I will not be using any more than I am using. I outlined this in my last post.

Recently, I have seen links posted on Twitter with some anti-list sentiment. Check this one by @mbteach

I still think that for those who seek some ideas or inspiration the reading of list posts provides a starting, point, incentive and impetus to explore and think further.

I am particularly keen to gather ideas on leadership, well-being and  innovations in learning.

Much of my twitter stream reflects this interest.

Some companies, like 12most even build their brand around this list concept.

Each day I use:

1. Twitter is still numero uno.
I check my stream many, many times each day. I post or share useful links on Twitter morning and night from my daily email alerts and various enewsletters.

2. I check my Facebook for family and friend updates morning and night. I like and comment often.

3. During school term, I keep maang as a TAB and check in regularly. I am more a lurker here. I like as often as I feel a connection.

4. I don't bookmark anymore.

5. I still like slideshare and still share useful shows.

6. I use my ipad each day to read the paper and novels.

That is all I can fit in.
