With the announcement of Geotagging feature for your tweets, Twitter has added another feather in their cap. With this feature, all your tweets would be tagged and enabling a person to know, exactly from which location you are tweeting.
What is the need of this? Well, with the help of geographical data, display of local ads and information will be much more easy.

Twitter is simple and so easy micro blogging to use, that newly registed first time users usually ask themselves if this is all there is to it! Now Twitter is adding features.
Twitter just announced on its blog that they will soon addin a new feature called ‘List’ with a small group of users.

List on Twitter
- ‘List’ will allow users to curate lists of Twitter accounts. This means you can now have similar accouts on one list.
- People who follow you can also follow the your whole list which you have organized instead of doing individually. This means lists have the potential to be an important new discovery mechanism for great tweets and accounts.
- Lists are public by default but can have an option to be made them private.
Twitter claims that this is being developed for better organization of accounts which was the common grouse of people who follow a lot of people on Twitter.
In my opinion Twitter is making a transformation from being a social networking
or micro blogging site into a feed-provider service.
Maybe people should stop comparing Twitter with Facebook and start comparing it to RSS in the future.
Twitter will be allow ‘List’ feature to all its users very soon after tests are completed.
