Hey Listers,
Twitter me this, Twitter me that. Doesn’t it seem like Twitter is everywhere now? It’s no illusion, it really is. Over the past year Twitter.com’s traffic has grown 1,043% to nearly 20 million visitors last month. That’s a two followed by 7 zeros. 20 million! That’s the distance between your back door and Venus (the 2nd-closest planet to the sun). That’s 200 times as many people than fit in The Shoe every Autumn Saturday afternoon. So the question is, are you one of those 20,000,000? Have you jumped on the bandwagon yet?
ListAfterList has – you can follow us at http://twitter.com/listafterlist and get updates every time a new wiki list is created. And so have many other famous people and cool companies – as well as some losers:The Orlando Magic: Just got trounced by the Lakers in the NBA Finals.
50 Cent: Lost to Kanye in the rap album sales battle.
Paula Abdul: Being replaced by the new, hotter, younger female judge.
MLB: Ratings continue to plummet as steroid allegations continue to emerge.
Bushnell Boys: My three high school friends that are the epitome of losers.
Dwight Howard: Despite dominating the feeble Cavs in the Eastern Conference finals, Howard and his Magic are truly the first and biggest losers of the 2008-09 NBA season (I may be a biased analyst).
Denise Richards: Anyone who had Charlie Sheen and now doesn’t is a considerable loser.
Dane Cook: Likely the most hated comedian amongst his peers.
Jessica Simpson: Have you seen how much weight she lost? She was huge!
Mandy Moore: Broke up with Vincent Chase in last season’s Entourage… so sad, poor Vinny.
Heidi Montag: Lost any respect she may have had after going on the “I’m a Celebrity: Get Me Out of Here” reality TV show.
Ryan Pratt: And you can always follow me if you’re as big of loser as I am.

ListAfterList Updates and Reminders
Have you tried the new search on LAL powered by Google? It is much more effective. Now you can think of LAL as a place of reference, instead of just a website where you can find randomly cool stuff and interesting trivial lists. Or try using LAL when you are looking for holiday gifts for someone (i.e. Top 10 Gifts for a Star Wars Fan).

Greetings Listers!
Don’t worry! This newsletter will not just jump to a black screen at the end. You won’t think your internet connection went out like you did your TV Sunday night. There will be some sort of conclusion. Promise.
Don’t get me wrong, I respect David Chase’s decision to end the Sopranos like he did. Personally, I even liked his creative choice. But much of the nation didn’t. And their voices have been heard. So what do you think happened at the end of the show? My favorite idea so far is that Tony got whacked just like he said it would, you never see it coming and then it all just goes black. (But maybe you can change my mind)
And incase you need to go back and watch some previous episodes, take this Mobster Dictionary with you!
In any case, James Gandolfini can get out and play some more golf now. And don’t forget the U.S. Open starts Thursday – think Tiger is the best? Think again!
Or maybe Gandolfini prefers the other country club sport, tennis. Speaking of which, did you see Nadal and Henin-Hardenne win their 3rd consecutive titles at the French Open last weekend?
Tony Soprano may or may not have been like your dad. And maybe you wish he was? But don’t forget about your real dad this Father’s Day! I’m sure he’d like these high tech toys.
Then, if you can’t live without the Sopranos buy yourself the DVDs. Or check out what Gandolfini is planning to do next.
