Twitter Top 25 Update – July 2011
Follower count growth continues to sit in a summer trough with almost identical numbers to both June and May. Despite the slow going, a handful of resorts picked up the pace and moved up the charts in the July update to the Top 25 Ski Resorts on Twitter list. You may also notice a couple changes to the list this month. First, I dropped Tweet counts. With the ability to delete old tweets and the number listed not telling any story of value, I finally cut them out to simplify the list. Second, I dropped Klout scores. With their new system, this is the second month in a row I’ve had trouble getting up to date scores, so they’re gone as well. If you want to check you Klout score, you can do so here.
