TRENDY DESKTOP - HOW KENYANS TWEET: THE TOP TWITTER CLIENTS I looked at 11,500 tweets and found several ways in which kenyans interact with the Twitter. These is a follow up to a previous analysis 6 months ago. Again, I used the Twittter API to monitor public feeds from the Kenyan locality over a 24hr period. The tweets were cumulatively collected for a 24hr period using Trendy Desktop. On average 1,000 tweets are sent every hour and well over 15, 000 tweets each day The results are attached as images. What is most significant is the rise of Snaptu as the preffered method of tweeting. Snaptu rose from 15% to 42% of all the tweets sent while twitter (including mobile) dropped from 59% to 30% as compared to 6 months ago. Also included is a list of 7 top twitter users in Kenya who happen to contribute over 21% of the volume of tweets sent and the clients they normally use. More analysis of these later.
