As promised, here is an overview of the dissemination of the most influential Twitter users in the UK. More detailed analysis can be found in our Social Media Insight 2009 report, which is the first comprehensive report into social media in the UK & Ireland. All of the information below is compiled solely using data from Social Media Library. If you have any thoughts or views, please do get in touch. Regional breakdownLondon is top for Twitter users with 11% of them living in the capital, but there is far more even distribution across the UK & Ireland. Interestingly, Cambridge has the second highest concentration after London, which could be something to do with the large technology community in the city.Average number of followers by UK cityThe breakdown of ‘followers’ – people who tune into other users’ tweets for regular updates on their activity - is just as intriguing. Coventry and Leicester record the highest average number of avid followers, each at just a shade under 600. London, despite having the highest proportion of people posting on Twitter, lies towards the bottom of the list when it comes to major followers.

These stats in no way tell us where to find the most influential twitter users in the UK.
