Karim got me thinking about metrics around twitter. He’s suggesting a followers to following ratio (in my case about 164/132: 1.23 or so – grown from 148/119.)
I personally like posts / followers, which helps understand how many people you’re reaching. In my case that’s about 337/164 – or about 2.05. Should that number be lower-is-better? Scobleizer has 25,186 followers and 12,232 updates. (Seriously, 12k posts? Who has that much time?) That gives him a reach of about 0.48 – a healthy low number.
But maybe it should just be a multiplier. For me that would be 55k, for him it would be about 308 million. A ratio that probably reflects reality.
My followers to following ratio is crazy awesome. 105:0
:-)
Yeah, I thought about that one. I would call it “infinite twitter reach.” :)
Looks like Dave Wiener already did something like this (thanks, Paul!)

I think maybe you’re taking twitter too seriously :)
Maybe! But not really. Mostly just having fun.
