Written by I have finally found some time to look back at the Tweetwall data from Social Media world Forum 2012 and compare it to last years event data. This is uncovering some very interesting facts, however, before I get too deep into that I wanted to to acknowledge the individuals who joined the 2012 #SMWF twitter conversations as they all played a major part in making the event such a success and I also wanted to give a big shout out to the organisers at Six degrees and Text 100 who sponsored the #SMWF Tweetwall this year.
The Top Tweeters
For those who were not at the event, the Tweetwall was projected onto a large screen at the event and displayed all the avatars and messages from the people tweeting using the hashtag #SMWF, and on each hour, it identified and displayed who the current top tweeters were.
The #SMWF Tweetwall is still actively displaying the tweets and I can see from the image above that the the top tweeter of this hour, as i write this blog post is @jacqui_fleming with 4 Tweets which is great news for the event organisers as their audience continue to tweet about the event, but who topped the various leader boards across the whole event?
The Leader Boards
Well the Top Tweeter from #SMWf 2012 with 339 tweets was @anubavam, followed by @socialMediaWF with 291 Tweets, @cwindely with 234, followed by @barryfurby with 155 tweets and @thomaspower completing our Top 5 Tweeters. Bear in mind this is data that was processed from tweets starting from 8th February.

This is a great leader board as it lets you see out of all of the people using the hashtag #SMWF who has the largest number of people following them. Which this year was headed by @Whatleydude, then @charliesaidthat who we met last year at #smwf 2011. He is followed by @KerryatDell @andyoakes and @AndrewGrill
If you want to find a list of social media people who are connected to the pulse of the community this Top 50 Leader board perfect place to start.
Well, that should keep you busy for a while but if you do want to catch up on the 11,497 tweets from all 2,282 users who joined in the social media world forum 2012 conversation then you can find them all here.
