Nice round up! I like this idea of collection great links from twitter.
Hi Miriam,
Thanks for the compliment. You’re not just saying that because two of the links were tweeted by you?
Actually, it started as a way for me to organize my tweets better so that I could find links I had previously posted. Making the list public was just the natural progression. I’m glad you’re able to get something from them.
Thanks again for checking in.
