Top 100 Irish Twitterers getting the most Irish Twit Love

We’ve found just over 3,400 Twitterers that we are pretty sure are Irish (using a very subjective definition of “Irish”). We’ve been doing a bit number crunching and have come up with the following list of the top 100 Irish Twitterers in order of their Irish Twitterer following. (If you want to make sure we are including you, then follow @irishblogs on Twitter).

Note:People have said: “Hey I have 150 followers but you are only showing 85″.  In this list we are only counting Irish Twitterers as followers.  We will be doing more stats with different criteria over the next week.

A CSV file containing the top 1000 users is available.

The counts above may be up to a week old in some cases. We intend to update the list regularly.

Coming up soon we’ll be doing the list of :

- Global Twitterers (either Irish or non-Irish - the above list is
only Irish) who are most followed by Irish.
- Irish Twitterers you may not have heard of, but are huge internationally.
