How We Use Twitter
If you want to make your own info-graphic, this link might be useful: http://www.easel.ly/
This info-graphic was made in roughly 10 minutes. This research might not reflect what your followers do however, as you have chosen who you want to interact with and your followers (and the people you follow) may act significantly differently then what the statistics predict.
- simply pick a theme
- drop and drag the stuff you want on it
- text is also dropped and dragged onto the info-graphic
- to re-size or rotate stuff, simply use the handles provided
- this info-graphic is layered, so things can be placed behind other things (pictures or text at the moment).
Info-graphics are a popular way to pass on information and the links to it are often also shared by those who you give this information to.
Please note that this twitter info-graphic is only a rough calculation based on published sources. The purpose of the info-graphic is more to test easel. The author believes that a lot of people are tweeting more often then then once a week. Many people probably tweet more then once a day–when they do choose to use twitter.
