Inference

We recently rolled out the Lists feature for everybody. This means that Cadmus will find top conversations and trending topics from your lists. You can use this to stay updated on a certain topic (like social media) without having to follow all the related people on Twitter. You can simply follow a list (Cadmus will sync your lists automatically) and you can keep up with them really easily.

We used this idea to create a page that helped people stay up to date with the SXSWi speakers. We simply used the list created by @sxsw and started finding the top content from that list. And now we extended the idea to other topics. Earlier this week @raffi tweeted about the suggested users API. We used that API to create lists for certain topics and have created public pages where you can see their trending topics and conversations. For example, you can see the top content from the topic of technology here and you can see all the topics we have here.

A quick note on syncing lists; if you find that a list that you have just followed or un-followed is not showing up in Cadmus it might be because we haven’t synced it yet. But if you want to see the changes right away, you can head over to the Services page and click on your Twitter service and then hit the Sync Service button.

Let us know what you think of the Lists and Topics feature on Twitter.
