Twitter Follow Recommendations Let You Make A Personalized Suggested User List


Users wishing to take advantage of Follow Recommendations can do so by creating a plain old Twitter list and including the hashtag #WelcomeToTwitter in the list ´s description.

Grace Chu Lee from Twitter's Business Development team earlier tweeted out and then deleted a Twitter feature that has as of yet gone unheard of beyond a select few, Follow Recommendations."Follow Recommendations" which lets you create lists of people you think others should follow, has been around for months we´re hearing but hasn't been publicized much outside of Twitter itself (Lee calls it a hidden feature in the tweet).

Ostensibly Follow Recommendations allow you to create a personal Suggested Users List for people who sign up for Twitter directly through your profile (for example if they encounter one of your hilarious tweets in the wild and are inspired to sign up for Twitter).

Users who sign up for Twitter from your profile will see your recommendations like in the screenshot below. But why would this be useful to anyone you ask Well from what I´m hearing it wasn ´t really intended for hoi polloi, but was mainly marketed to celebrities and brands that have a critical mass of people joining Twitter through their profiles presumably. Which is probably why it hasn ?t seen the light of day until now.

When asked if Twitter was sitting on similar hidden features, Twitter Communications Rep Carolyn Penner told me in a DM, "There might be other secret features but I don't know what others don't know!"
