Katie Chatfield mentioned Xefer.com/twitter data visualisation tool at Ad:Tech Sydney. The tool allows you to plot a ‘twitterers’ behaviour over a week. Simply enter their profile and with a mixture of Google’s Chart API and Yahoo Pipes it magically plots the ‘twitterers’ habits. With a mild fascination in data and understanding online behaviour – it caught my imagination…
Since joining Twitter I’ve posted 696 times as @benhamin. It would seem that Fridays at 10am I have the most to say and 3pm I’m consistently blurting out 140 characters to who will ever listen.
It’s probably better to look at some serious Twitterers, rather than my poor excuse, so I felt that the lads from Bannerblog might be a good start. Top AU blog and all that.
Ashley aka 100ftzombie. 2,751 tweets so far. 10am Saturday is a hotspot, but Ash does most of his tweeting between 9 – 11pm. Work is for work and then the tweets coming flying out at night.
Ashadi Hopper. 1,170 tweets to date. Pretty consistent overall – but 10am is a strong time – after reading the news perhaps?
Who else, Gavin over at Servant of Chaos has tweeted a staggering 7,422+ times. Monday’s 11 – 3pm – what’s happening Gav?
Monday is certainly my best day (I think it's when I get most of my research done in preparation for the week ahead - and what I find, I share).
And I also see that period after lunch as being similar to direct email - where people are recovering from lunch and looking for stimulation before getting back into the detail of work. People are receptive to conversation and discussion in that 2-3pm window.
Thanks for the insight. Its interesting to see that Monday remains that clear the decks, catchup on news and plan the week day... but what's great is that you share your discoveries - thanks for that.
ha this is great. 10 am Saturday is when I wake up and don;t want to get out of bed so I pull out the ipod and tweet away. 9pm is when I usualy get home from work and I sit down and catch up on what I missed haha
Twitter data – the anti timesheet?
