July 2011: Ottawa’s Twitter top 20
There are lots of movers and changes on this month’s Ottawa’s Twitter top 20. Twitter grader has introduced an Ottawa Elite ranking that I used instead of just checking the geographic list. This has introduced a number of new profiles to the left hand side of the table (popularity). It makes me wonder if Grader looks only follower count but I don’t see anything on the website to indicate there’s been any change. All the profiles listed here score 100% on Twitter Grader.
On the right side we see the return of TweetLevel as our tool, thanks to Edelman‘s recent relaunch. It’s really a better tool than Klout for these purposes because it measures influence on Twitter only. Klout uses blogs, Facebook and LinkedIn as part of its secret sauce. TweetLevel lets us compare apples to apples.
Just a reminder that is all just a bit of competitive fun because the true value of Twitter is what each individual user derives from it; its never a random number on a scoreboard. Congratulations if you’ve made the grade in terms of popularity or influence or both. If I’ve missed you off the list and you should be there, I apologise; please leave a note in the comments and I’ll fix it next month.

I love these lists, I always find someone new to follow.
BTW, my TweetLevel score is 74.4
I’ll get you in next month @hotelqueen!
Love the list. It’s a great way to find new Ottawa movers and shakers to follow.
I’d love to see a link to the Twitter accounts, though. It would be much easier to connect.
And now I’m going to start checking these folks out. Thanks!
I always have put the links to the folks twitter profiles on past lists, but I was really short of time this month. It takes ages! I’ll do better next month!
If you’re on WordPress you can probably get a plugin to convert them to links for you. A quick search found one called Arrueba that looks like it would do that.
Maybe next month
I’m at 66 but I think changing handles from @keenanwellar to @socialkeenan was a temporary setback. This is fun I look forward to the list every month.
Actually, scratch that, I’m at 73…shoulda made the list
The 66 was from Klout.
Maranda, thanks for the tip. Keenan, I’ll try to include you for this month. Are you on Twitter Grader.
Never tried Tweet level before, mine is 73.4
97.5 on Grader. Thanks for introducing me to a new tool!
Oops! Forgot to mention that my Twitter handle is @NurturedChild
