[...] Now Twitter will ask you who you want to add to your list. Type in “theredbirds” and you’ll find us — but instead of clicking the +follow button, click the Manage Lists button, where you’ll get a drop down menu containing the list you just created. Select the proper list, and you’re done! You now can follow theredbirds without actually following them. You can also fill this list up with even more Cardinal Twitterers if you want to.

Thanks everyone for all of the feedback and retweets.

It occurred to me that I didn’t even pimp our own writers in this post, so I’ll do it now:

@PitchersHit8th
@aprfool79
@andrewdmoses

Amusing that I forgot that part the first time around…

Good post Nick. Thanks for the inclusion in the list, and I’ll be sure to check out the others that you mentioned that I don’t already follow.

Wow. Just – wow.

A great post, Nick. In fact, I’m going to do a permanent link to it on my front page. This is a must-read for Cardinal fans.

And I’ve also picked up a few new followers today, much like Dan did. Thanks for doing this.

Think Joe Strauss will answer my tweets now? Nah, me neither…
