Do Social Media Lists End at 23?

I'm switching gears - from triathlete to geek. As a web marketer for a zoo, I'm always looking for the best way to approach online marketing. And, because we don't sell a tangible product (we sell an "experience"), social media and networking have provided a great outlet for interacting with our audience (I've even noticed people will ask questions on Facebook and Twitter before thinking to look up the answers on our website). While learning about social media tools and searching and reading social media sites, I noticed a trend: the LISTS. Social media gurus are all about "top 'N'" lists... amused at the number of lists, and the number of "numbers," I started bookmarking them. And now I have my own list - a sort of list of lists.

It's in numerical order:

One Social Media Site You May Not Know (only one?)
2 Social Media Marketing Failures
3 Social Media Measurement Tools
4 Reasons Social Media Marketing Fails
There were many top 5s, here are two:
- 5 Essential Traits for Community Managers
- 5 ways to empower your crowd
6 Social Media Myths
7 Ways to Approach Twitter
8 Social Media Sites for Local Networking
9 Social Media Aggregators to simplify your life online (having 9 sounds complicated)
There were lots of top 10s, here are a few:
- 10 Most Extraordinary Twitter Updates
- 10 Twitter Tools to Organize Your Tweeps
- The 10 Commandments of Social Media
- Top 10 Reasons Your Company Should Not Tweet
- Top 10 tips for brand engagement via social media
Top 11 guidelines for using social media by IBM
Top 12 Twitter Video Tutorials on Web
13 Enlightening Case Studies of Social Media in the Classroom
14 social media and marketing podcasts worth listening to
There was more than one top 15:
- 15 Social Media Discovery Tools
- 15 Social Media Maxims for Marketers
- Top 15 Social Media Marketing Resources
16 High Resolution Social Media Bookmark Logos and Icon Sets
The Future of Shopping? 17 Social Shopping Sites
Top 18 Social Media Resources for Developers
19 Social Media Tips Under 140 Characters
AND: 20 Social Media Tips Under 140 Characters
But Seriously: In Pictures: 20 Social Media Blunders
21 Traffic Triggers for Social Media Marketing
Believe it or not, there were even two top 22s (who'da thunk?)
- 22 DoFollow Social Media Sites Offering Profile Links
- The 22 Step Social Media Marketing Plan (that's a LOT of steps)
The 23 Types of Social Media Users (omg, there are 23???)
And that's where it ended... all the way up to... you guessed it, 41!
41 Top Tips To Growing Your Social Media Presence
42 Top Social Media Tips And Tools
And I gave up, but I did find a Top 100 (well, top 100"+"):
100+ Resources to Boost Your Social Media Savvy in 2009

Got that? Now go forth and socialize.
