I got a new follower,  this guy, http://twitter.com/Zen_Is_2_Now.  Now he actually seems like his is in my general industry, so maybe I’ll get some hits….. So I took a look and he is following 4,707 and has 4,303 followers.  Now, I’m not sure, but if you follow that many people, is it even possible to actually “Follow” that many people.  What is the point? is my real question….  I have about 80 friends in Facebook, man, it is hard to follow 80 people you actually know.

Second, my Zen budy has posted 1,041, so he is way more expert about Twitter than I am.  So that got me to thinking, what are some averages of posts?

Guys I’m following.

These guys are in the Media Business…
Leo Laporte (King of Twitter in my mind), he has 132,907 followers and has twitted 2,375 times.
Website Magazine, 3,727 followers, 1,035 posts.
Hugh Hewitt, (He is the king of talking about Twitter on his show) 12,308 followers, and 590 posts.

John McCaine - 919,681 followers, only 487 twitts…. now, he ran for President, and he only got to 487.

Me… the original author of the 12 Days of Twitter… 43 posts.
