Using lists on Facebook

When the lists feature first appeared on FaceBook, I encouraged you to start grouping your friends. Why? If you have more than a handful of friends you miss a lot of information. The only way to process all of the information flowing thru FaceBook is to develop effective habits of organization.

How should you organize your lists? I set up my lists as follows: Family, Cleveland, Bay Area, Ny, Go Blue, Sigs, Science, Yoga, work. It is hard for me to find someone who does not fit into one of these categories in my life. They cover school, places i’ve lived and life. Each person gets put on one list, even if they could be on 3. Why? Because as I click on my lists my newsfeed gets filtered and I quickly see most of the info I want to see. Is this perfect? No. Effective? Yes!

Information management is getting more complex, good habits make it possible to stay active within your network with less time. Back 2 Basics, make a list.
