I moved to San Francisco on June 1st of 2008 which is 8 months ago to the day. That’s pretty cool actually. Anyway, I signed up with TwitterCounter<\/a> only a week after moving to San Francisco and according to the graph I had 817 followers on June 13th.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a><\/p>\n

Today I have 2,150 followers which means I’ve added 1,333 followers since moving to San Francisco which is an average of 18 new followers a day. <\/p>\n

I joined Twitter on March 21st, 2007 and when I moved to San Francisco I had been a member of the service for 14 months and only had 817 followers. Fast forward 8 months and I’ve nearly tripled that number. This goes to show that moving to San Francisco and playing an active role in the social media \/ Web 2.0 community has directly affected the amount of followers I have on Twitter.<\/p>\n

On a side note, that dip in the graph was when Twitter killed millions of spam accounts that had joined the service. My follower count dropped by 300 that day. It took a month to recover from that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I moved to San Francisco on June 1st of 2008 which is 8 months ago to the day.…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-life","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-x","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1625,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2011\/01\/28\/my-mostly-stagnant-twitter-following\/","url_meta":{"origin":33,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 My Mostly Stagnant Twitter Following","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"January 28, 2011","format":false,"excerpt":"When I arrived in San Francisco, I had 800 followers.
