How to Track My Twitter Progress
Twitter is a popular social networking application that allows you to post short messages, including photos and Website links. How you define your progress on Twitter depends on what you hope to achieve when using it. Several online utilities allow you to find your ranking on Twitter based on who follows you, who retweets you, how often you use Twitter, how often others interact with you and other factors. To track your progress using these tools, you should make a note of your current scores, then check your score again over the course of several weeks or months.
