You might be a member of one or more Twitter lists and not even realize it.
An often-overlooked Twitter feature, lists are curated collections of Twitter users that anyone can make to see a custom collection of tweets. The bottom line is that Twitter lists let users create a themed, custom Twitter experience.
Anyone can add you to a list. You can subscribe to the lists you’re a member of, or remove yourself from the list.
