I updated out top 100 events list and moved it to a permanent page.
View the list in entirety: Top 100 Event Twitter Accounts
Follow the list on twitter: @crowdvine/top-100-events
The top-100 list is based on a sorting of roughly 2000 event twitter accounts. Jumping into the top 100 are LeWeb, nar2009, and gilbaneboston, Official_PAX, twi_tour, Bumbershoot, NY_Comic_Con hollywoodfest, GameOnLondon, fantasticfest.
I want to say a little bit about LeWeb. I forgot to mention them last week in my post about Airbnb for conferences. LeWeb was featured on the Airbnb site and were promoting Airbnb as a cost-savings measure for attendees. A lot of innovative stuff comes out of that conference. Second, I’ve been surprised that they weren’t in this list all along given that they are a major conference run by the founder of a major Twitter app. They had their event in between my first posting and this one. During that time they pulled in almost 15k followers and jumped from outside the top 100 to #6.
So there’s hope for all the event accounts that are just getting started. The trick is just to put on a great event and then you’ll attract tons of followers. Easy?
Is Airbnb doing the same thing as Sherpa Travel ?
@Darrin:
Sherpa Travel hasn’t even launched yet. So isn’t the real question, is Sherpa doing the same thing as AirBnB?
