Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

SCIENCE OF TWEETING


Sanjivani,


Further to my yesterday's mail re posting of our Investment News ( as REPLY ) on web sites of POPULAR persons or Organizations , look at the following tabulation :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Handle ................ /  Type....................../  No of Tweets...................../  No of Followers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@ShivAroor     /     Editor-India Today Magazine  /    46.5 K.................. /     93.3 K

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@CNBCTV18Live /   TV Channel      /     29.7 K................./    25.2 K

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@EY_India.........../  Consultancy Firm    /     6531     /    9.8 K

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@KiranShaw       /    Business Leader    /    16.4   K      /    437  K

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@KabirBedi      /   Actor Celebrity   /   4433    /   99.3  K

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@RMantri  /   Venture Capitalist   /   26.3  K    /   13.6  K

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@ShereenBhan    /  CNBC  TV  Editor   /   9077   /   37.4  K

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Following pattern emerges :


>    Celebrities ( of any type ) have MANY MORE followers ( even if their own No of Tweets are not a large number )

>   The More one tweets , the more no of Followers one acquires ( over a period of time )


If one were to plot a graph of :


*  On X axis................No of Tweets

*  On Y axis................No of Followers ,


then ( I guess ) , it could well be a straight line , with a " Co-efficient of Correlation " close to 1


But , as I said yesterday , while posting our REPLIES ( on the Twitter web sites of above types of persons / organizations ) remember to,

>   No more than 2/3 posts ( replies ) on any given web site per day

Our REPLIES must have some RELEVANCE / CONNECTION to the SUBJECT of the original tweet

Of Course , there are some very SENIOR MINISTERS or GOVT SECRETARIES , who manage to post ONE tweet in 2/3 months !

Avoid them  !

Obviously , no one visits their Twitter web site and they must have only VERY FEW followers  !
