This is the great and useful stats. Pune is now started noticing Twitter. I think it will be more helpful if you take data from http://twitterholic.com.

As with any analysis, I have described the methodology and my perceptions of the results.
The answers are to be found there.

Basically – I did not want to play “god” here in tampering with the results using my judgement.
I hope you find a consistent logic applied without any personal prejudice which is the best
one can hope for under such an exercise.

The input to the exercise was top 50 in : http://twitter.grader.com/index.php?Action=TwitterUsersByLocation&City=PUNE&State=16&Country=IN

So whether I find someone missing is irrelevant.

I wouldn’t read too much into the number of geeks being high – thats probably a function of the fact that a high percentage of twitter users in pune are geeks.

On a separate note whether twitter community in Pune is more about tech and less about social media (or for that matter anything else) is also a little suspect since a lot people in the list do not primarily tweet tech stuff.

BTW – the links are there – not sure how u missed it (they were not there for the first couple of hrs .. but were added soon thereafter).

What I liked abt the list is – number of geeks on the list. Specializing if we find out how many of the people are geeks+entrepreneurs then that number if very good which I think contributes to the fact that twitter community in Pune at least is more abt tech and less abt social media. Thats a nice thing to have (for us geeks anyways).

BTW – links to twitter account of this elite group would have helped.

@anon I understand where you’re coming from. But thats the wrong problem to fix. The right way to handle it is to treat them as being able to provide lesser attention to those they follow. Thus having followers each following tons of people should result in a much poorer network strength than having followers each following only a few people. The impact of those who follow a lot is on the followed not on themselves – since they have lesser attention to spare.

@Sandeep Glad u liked it.

why do you say so? I follow more than 1000 and try to do justice to all be having multiple columns in my tweetdeck window. What’s wrong with scanning a lot of twitter accounts and scouting for great content? I also subscribe to a lot of blogs in my google reader (that stat is not public) and perhaps the blogs I read is more than the subscribers I have for my blog , but should that disqualify my blog to be placed in a top list?

@d7y gr8 sruff and appreciate all your efforts !

@Anon, if you remove users who follow more than a couple of hundred users, the entire list will probably disappear. Also, the quality of a twitterer should be judged by the quality of people following him, not by the quality or number of people that he is following.
