http://loopaxles.blogspot.com/2010/10/twitter-wars.html With a season now behind us...I decided to take another look to see where things currently stand in the skating "Twitterverse." Things having changed that much...based on followers at time of post:
#10 Jeremy Abbott (14,125)
#9 Patrick Chan (14,341)
#8 Mirai Nagasu (15,568)
#7 Miki Ando (22,363)
#6 Evgeny Plushenko (22,841)#5 Kristi Yamaguchi (25,464)
#4 Joannie Rochette (26,868)
#3 Evan Lysacek (63,752)
#2 Johnny Weir (95,794)
#1 Kim Yu-Na (356,355)
...
Since things didn't change that much, I decided to look at the numbers in a different way. Rather than looking at # of followers,
I looked at % increase in followers which painted a different story. How do they rank (excpet Ando who I didn't have info on last Oct.) by percent increase of followers?#9 Evan Lysacek + 8%
#8 Patrick Chan + 31%
#7 Kim Yu-Na + 34%
#6 Mirai Nagasu + 34.5%
#5 Johnny Weir + 37%
#4 Jeremy Abbott + 41%
#3 Joannie Rochette + 44%
#2 Kristi Yamaguchi + 66%
#1 Evgeny Plushenko + 91% https://twitter.com/EvgeniPlushenkoWow! The Olympic Champ is struggling! In a more and more socially connected world he was only able to increase his Twitter following by 8%...yikes. The bright-lights of Vancouver are fading ...might explain his recent indication that he may be returning to competition. I feel like that was a poor quarterly earnings report.
The rest of the field has made nice gains...
but one crushes them all...Plushenko! He's almost doubled his Twitter following. This shows he has a dedicated social core and with his subsequent return to competition I suspect this number will continue to rise as well.....
