It's very easy to do, and can be done as many times as you like to find just the right person to follow as a role model on twitter. I was able to find some awesome people to follow rather quickly using this technique, thanks for the advice. I love this analysis.

I don't think you can successfully follow more than that. So what if Problogger is following me, he follows 30,000 other people, he will never even see what I tweet about. Twitter Ratio is way more important to me than anything else. Not saying that you should follow zero people, but you should follow an amount that you can actually read each tweet. Otherwise you are just abusing Twitter. I have an issue with people following over 4 or 500 people on twitter. I don’t think you can successfully follow more than that.

If you want to be a power user (and you're not already a well known name like Tim) then you need to be open with your communication and willing to follow in addition to just being followed. Otherwise, you're just taking from Twitter without giving back in return.

I hadn't considered that before. I usually tend to model what others do naturally, but critically analyzing fun and interesting tweeple is wonderful. Thank you for the idea.

I started with some accounts on twitter a few months ago and I'm now starting to use it more frequently to get an idea of the true potential. Although I like TwitterFriend's statistics I'm not sure if there is really a rule to be concluded analyzing successful tweeters. Different things work in different communities ... I wouldn't break it down into something like "What I'm doing + title + link", just delve into the community and see what happens. Nice approach and thanks for recommending TwitterFriends.
