Twitterholic: How High Are You Ranked?
Web March 20th, 2007Twitter is one of the latest and most popular Web services for the masses. The basic object of Twitter is to let people know what you are doing, in order to eliminate the dreaded message saying “What’s up” over IM.
This morning I stumbled across a website via Technorati called Twitterholic. Twitterholic basically scans the Twitter public timeline for new users to watch. A few times a day, they calculate individual statistics for each user user in their database and compile a “Twitter Top 100″ list based on the statistics tracked.
Personally I love statistics, and was disappointed when Digg dropped their Top Users section off the site a few months back. Much to my amazement, Twitterholic has me inspired to keep Twittering and pick up some new friends along the way..
I’m ranked at exactly number 100 on the list, with two of my friends Paul Stamatiou ranked in at 33, and Derek Punsalan at 89. Feel like pushing up my rank? Add me as a friend on Twitter.
Are you Twittering too? Drop your profile in the comments.

Heh, so this is like a Twitter top user list? I’m surprised Leo Laporte isn’t on the top of that list.
I quit Twitter a few days ago, and I’m so glad that I did.

I am totally a twitter. I use twitterrific from The Iconfactory to do my bidding. I love to twitter and this site definitely inspires me to continue a try to get on that list.

Twitter has really lost its coolness to me, I find it boring now

I find Twitter perfect for when I’m really bored. My girlfriend is completely addicted to Facebook and MySpace, so I’m quite glad I’ve got *something* without having to stoop to a MySpace level.

You’re my friend, Glenn; added you a week or two ago.
Twitter is so much fun, especially receiving the updates on your phone — I wonder how much they’re paying for sending all those txt’s. :/
