Titter Accounts in IndiaStumbled upon a great and interesting post at Twitter Facts, an unofficial Twitter Blog that analyze facts and opinion on Twitter and so called "Twitosphere" . The post analyze Twitter accounts in India, History (graphs and charts) and also gives Twitter accounts URLs with rankings in terms of oldest accounts, updations, degree of activity, number of followers and followings.

The blogger of the post found that there are  1631 active twitter accounts (at the time of posting) in India, which is surprisingly low i.e. there is a twitter account for every 687,000 people in India, indeed there would be lesser figure as Indian people who could or wish to use Tiwitter or say people who are more web savvy are living abroad and working either as a part of IT workforce in pretty good amount and does not mention India as their Home or native place while creating accounts, as the blogger at Twitter Facts has mentioned  this - "A Twitter account was considered to be held by someone from India if the location explicitely refers to India or if the Twitter user was located in India according to one of the Twitter mapping mashups." 

All the way an Interesting post and great analysis also need to mention one can found IndianWeb2 Twitter account at http://twitter.com/indianweb2 and dont forget to look at this great post at Twitter Facts: First State of Twitosphere in India especially the graphs and charts, the one here amon them is here in this post. Also have rankings mentioned along with account URLs those of Twitter accounts are nice resource for Twitter geeks among whom my favourites are http://twitter.com/labnol (Amit Agarwal) and http://twitter.com/Gauravonomics ( Gaurav Mishra).
