twitter_logo_125x291Twitter is making some great strides as of late, including their new retweet function and the extremely useful “Lists.”  Lists are an incredibly easy way to organize the tweeps you follow or just happen to come across.  So I have begun to use this new tool to organize the different Portland literary entities (writers, bookstores, libraries, reading series, organizations, etc.) that have a Twitter account.  You can see those lists and follow them on my @readportland Twitter account.

FYI, I just started creating these yesterday so if you don’t see yourself on the requisite list please DM or @ reply and I will get you added.  Or if you have an idea for a list, please share that as well. Happy tweeting!

Gabe Barber started Reading Local in January of 2009 as a vehicle for exploring Portland's literary scene. He's not an aspiring author, and you won't find his work on a bookshelf or in any prestigious lit rag. He is however, a full on book nerd, with a passion for independent literature.
