With the launch of TweetDeck’s update that I wrote about yesterday, the support for displaying your Twitter lists as columns has gotten much better. The great thing about the addition of Twitter lists and column functionality in TweetDeck is that you can build lists of people or search trending topics, both of which can provide a wealth of information, and keep them all in one place by topic or groups of friends or whatever.

Additionally, you don’t technically even have to “follow” these users if you have added them to a list to see their tweets. This can take a little time to set up and manage, but I’ve started to really dig into it and it’s a great way to clean up the clutter, filter out the “noise” and focus on what matters to you most in a concise fashion.

So, over the next few days if you discover that I have suddenly “unfollowed” you, don’t be sad… As Tupac would say, “I ain’t mad atcha”, I probably just moved you to a list in an effort to stay better focused.
