Very interesting!
I saw you had some libraries in there, how about careers services? I created this list (below). I think I will make my own separate TwitterLeague for them.

Hi Liz, I was just revisiting your list to show it to colleagues and I see that it appears to be updating dynamically so that it’s accurate of today rather than 31/7/09. Is that correct?
Cheers,
Matt
