Yahoo! Releases Research On Who Is Moving And Shaking On Twitter

It has been a few years since Twitter first started, and in 2011, nearly half a decade after Twitter started, finally some numbers are coming into play on who is moving and shaking on Twitter. It was even exciting to see some of the bloggers that Yahoo!

Of course, this was a research put together by several people from Yahoo and Cornell University. Here is a link to the actual PDF of the study.

Of course, celebrities made a huge impacts of the 50% of the 20K elite that the research came up with, but they also covered other categories too. The information was taken from Twitter lists and some of the top info shared was based on how much was tweeted in different categories. One of them was on blogging topics.

I was really happy to see a lot of my colleagues on this list and will list them here as well.
