I’ve recently started using an awesome Twitter tool called Listorious. I love it so much that I want to share it with you.
Twitter Lists
If you aren’t using Twitter lists yet, I highly recommend that you take some time to explore them. Twitter Lists are a feature of Twitter that allow you to organize the people you’re following on Twitter, or find new people. They offer a way for you to bunch together users (or patients, friends, etc) on Twitter into groups so that you can get an overview of what they’re up to. When you create a list, you see a stream of the latest tweets from a specified set of users. For example, you might consider making a list of your patients, local businesses you like, or people in your community. By viewing or following this list, you easily see what all of patients or people in your community are tweeting about.
Now... onto Listorious
Listorious is a third-party site that has a categorized directory of Twitter lists. Basically, its taken all the great lists that Twitter users have created and made them available to you in one place! You can search or browse through lists by category or find the most popular lists.
Below is a sample of a search for dentists in the Listorious directory:
I use Listorious as a targeted search tool to find health care organizations who are using Twitter. I also look at the list streams to see what popular topics are, who the key influencers are, and to find people who might fit my audience.
Listorious has lists for almost every topic, region, or profession so you can use it to find prospective patients, who are people talking to, what they are talking about about or what are they retweeting.
Start by asking yourself: Who do you want to reach on Twitter? Be specific and enjoy the search!
