Unlisted option for lists

It would be great to be able to make a list that I could share with friends but not have public to all my followers. Like YouTube's "unlisted" setting on videos. Not public, not private, but sharable through links? Say, a list of films we plan to watch together that I wouldn't want on my page?

    This is one of the first things I tried to do after signing up; was a bit disappointing I couldn't share a private list with a friend without having to make it public.

    I've made a list of movies I personally own. I'd love the ability to keep track of who is borrowing movies from me, and to be able to share my private inventory with a few select friends. The ability to create shared inventory lists could make it very useful to lend and borrow movies among friends.

    First: I accidentally "flagged this as inappropriate" It was a mistake. I find this NOT inappropriate. As a matter of fact I just voted three times for it!

    Second: Agreeing with Greg. I want to have some private interactions with friends and sharing a list with only one person or two is right now one of the things I am missing here.

    This existing suggestion was closest to my preference, so I voted for it. But to take this one step further... I would love the ability to share a list with SPECIFIC friends. For example, I have a small group of friends that often gets together to watch movies. I'd love to create a watchlist of films we all plan to watch together - but that list and its comment thread is not something I want the world to see, just my small group of friends.

    On a related note, this ties in to another suggestion I saw re: collaborating on a list with friends. It sounds like you're already working on that one - cool. Hopefully you can see how that might tie in with this idea of "invite-only" lists.

    Lastly - and I'm sorry if I'm pushing my luck here - I'm just about to add another suggestion, but it's related... private tags. When my group of friends watch a film together, I'd love be able to tag my entry with "Fords" and "Smiths" to remind me who I watched it with. But I don't want the world to see those tags. I'd rather they were private just to me. Thanks!

    I would love to share lists of my own film collection, but not with the entire world. Would it be possible to share private lists with friends only?
