I'd be pretty sure that "Who to Follow" is based on some sort of social graph though probably in a simplistic way, e.g. lots of people you follow follow this person and you don't.

Yeah, that's the only thing I've seen from them in this domain. It's just woefully lacking imo. I don't want to pick people to follow individually... I want to pick entire communities of people to follow.

So essentially lists created using social graph algorithms. I probably wouldn't use it personally but I can see how it could be useful.

This describes virtually every announcement I've heard from twitter.
