Twttrlists – The Best Tweets

I meant to blog about Twttrlists last week and then other projects came up. I made a few Twttrlists to try it out. I thought it was a fun idea to use tweets in building a lens.

My first lens was on Best of 3 Breakup Words. The 3 Breakup Words started as a fleeting Twitter game using the hashtag “3BreakupWords”. I added funny tweets and a tweet by Justin Timberlake.  I wanted the lens to be fun, so I left off some of the really nasty tweets. I also added Squidster’s lens, Best of 3 Words After Sex, since the topics were related. Depending on what words you said after sex, you could be hearing some breakup words. ;-)

The second was the Best of Google Friend Connect. This one is in the top 100 Twittrlist list. I added content from Squidoo lenses, Hubpages, and YouTube. I liked how the lens came out.

I’ve already gone back and added new tweets to each lens. I entered both in The Best Twittrlist Contest. Plus, they will count toward my Giant Squid count, though I’m trudging closer to the deadline.

I’m enjoying reading everyone else’s Twttrlist too – great ideas out there. I’m not surprised – Squidoo lensmasters are a creative and smart bunch of people.

  1. The Google Friend Connect Twitterlist looks nice, I’m not really familiar with it yet so it’s useful for me too. I’m not sure the link to your first lens is working here. You might want to check it, I couldn’t click through.

  2. Thanks, Mulberry, I fixed the first link. I check them before I publish, but you know, that one didn’t ‘play’ nice. ;-) I hope you enjoy the Google Friend Connect lens – it does have some helpful information on the how-tos for site owners and members.

  3. I think I need to visit a whole load of TWTTRLSTS because I am still trying to get to grips with how you can make one, without compromising on quality. They seem to me to be a bit like science, OK in the right hands and dangerous in the wrong ones! :lol:

  4. The Google Friend Connect does look very interesting – really need to spend some time looking at it after I’m all set for the Giant challenge! :)

  5. It’s a good idea, especially since you can set up your own ‘mini’ social network with Google Friend Connect. Good luck with the Giant Challenge – I bet you made it!
