Top 10 Twittering Genealogists according to WeFollow
Today I added myself to WeFollow with the tags #genealogy, #technology, and #innovation.
WeFollow allows Twitter users to specify 3 tags that describe them best. It then ranks the most popular Twitter users for each tag based on the number of Twitter followers.
I was surprised to find myself in the top 10 for #genealogy.
So in case it doesn’t last long, I took a screen capture:

Don’t know how they decided that one, I know heaps of twitterers with genealogy amongst their interests that have way more followers than these 10

I know other genealogists on twitter that should be on this list too.
These twittering genealogists need to add themselves to WeFollow with one of their tags as #genealogy.

So CONGRATULATIONS to you!

Do you have to tweet @wefollow again to get your stats updated? I see you’re listed at 513 followers, but have quite a few more than that.

What was their criteria? It looks like the number of followers, but was there something else, like number of tweets?

I tweeted @wefollow a second time to add a 3rd topic, and it picked up the additional topic, but did not refresh my followers or description. Perhaps they’re still developing a refresh option.

Don’t be so impatient to slide down. This thing is new. Allow it some time.
It will happen. Just wait for Ancestry.com, FamilyLink, geni.com etc to join
