I don't think the stats for most active twitter users are acurate, though - I have almost 40 thousand twitter updates, I wonder why someone with less than a third of that was considered more active than me. Cool initiative regardless. hahah that’s cool.

I think #yeg tweeps have the benefit of some really excellent twitter power-users and maybe that's why we use hashtags more...?
