I'm interested in watch how newspaper and magazine sites adopt the use of Twitter Lists. Today I took at look at 30 major news sites - so far there hasn't been a lot of activity in terms of list creation or attracting followers. But it's still early days.

I've been working on a massive domainer list, where each person has been vetted. I think it's the largest list on Twitter (not exactly sure). Here's the link:

The ecommerce list isn't even in English which isn't much use on an English blog I guess. heh
