For each user on Twitter, we use the API to determine their account characteristics, then provide a graphical representation and comparison of their footprint on the Twitter ecosystem; we call this the user's "characteristic graph". Selected users have had more detailed analyses run, and a graphical representation of their posting habits (or "personality graph") has been created.

In our future work, we will analyze each user on Twitter whose account is publicly accessible, we've looked at their friend connections and posting habits and determined how important they are in the Twitter ecosystem, using a number of different measures. We call this measurement "prestige", and you can see the Top 10 users for each of our different measurements.
