Fast forward to the digital era. These days, seems everybody and his brother (and his other brother!) has got a list. So we’ve decided to get in on the act. We’ll call it SafetyVision’s Top 10 Random Smattering List. The compilations range from season-appropriate listings to a few mobile video surveillance topics to lists capturing the online zeitgeist to clumps of pure random fun. Enjoy!

10. And the final Top 10 list: What else but (are you with me here?) 10 Ways You Can Use Twitter  Lists!

Did we “make the list”? You betcha! On the heels of the much ballyhooed Twitter Lists debut last week, we found ourselves on our first list: @1virtualprof/onlinesafety.  If you’re not already, we encourage you to get on Twitter and follow us @SafetyVision. Just one more way for us to commune!

And recently, we were listed as one of only two “Tier 1″ providers in an independent Frost & Sullivan research report on the global mobile video surveillance market. In all humility and with sincere appreciation of our industry clients and colleagues, we think we’ve put in the time, effort, and know-how to deserve the ranking. It’s good to be at the head of the list!

Well, I think I’ve proved my point: Lists abound. Top 10? This blogpost easily could have turned into a smattering of 50! But we’ve got safety to purvey and you’ve got people to protect, so let’s be about our business.
