An update to last year's list of top tweeters at SAP excluding official accounts (which typically have much higher numbers of followers).

This is based on the SAP twitter list created by the head of SAP Digital (and #3 tweeter), Jonathan Becher. That list has some data quality problems that I have tried to correct, but please let me know if this list is incorrect in some way.

Note there are quite a few changes from last year -- notably at the top of the list, where several of the highest social users at SAP have gone on to take up new roles at social-media focused organizations.

Does the number of followers actually mean anything useful?. Clearly, it's only an indirect vanity metric, but people do follow people because they are interested in the content tweeted out, so the list may turn out some names you haven't already seen that you might be interested in. This time around, I've included the number of people that the account follows (if you follow lots of people it's "easier" to get follows back) and the number of tweets (a high number of followers per tweet may be related to tweet 'quality' -- or to the notoriety of the person, e.g. SAP CEO Bill McDermott has by far the highest ratio in the list).

At analytics.twitter.com individuals can track better measures such as "engagement" (i.e. the number/proportion of tweets where there's proof that somebody saw it, i.e. they retweeted or clicked on a link etc.) -- but that's not easily available to others.

Finally, you should always question the bias and choice of metrics of people providing you with information! :smile:
