Twitter lists should have been much better
So Twitter finally allowed everyone access to their "new" lists feature... and it kinda sucked. I'm not saying lists are a bad idea, in fact I love them. But the implementation is amateurish.
Just look at this interface:
You'll notice I've made all my lists private. Which required me to :
- click each list,
- then click "edit" on the page for the list,
- then I had to select the proper radio button,
- and then I had to confirm that I was sure about this because this would remove all subscribers to the list... except there were no subscribers!
Perhaps they made this so hard by design. But looking at other Twitter features, I can't help but feel that they just aren't good at this. They've got this amazing platform, but their own interface is horrible and awkward.
This could (and should) have been so much better.
Please note that this is just a minor thing that bugs me about these lists, there are other far more important issues. And IMHO that's not a coincidence: if they can't get the simple stuff right, how are they ever going to get the important ones in order?
