Often, we judge someone’s influence on Twitterby the number of followers he or she has. Although we should not solely use this to measure influence, it is to a certain extent accurate.
For the fun of it, we gathered the necessary information of each social media site that is on Twitter, and ranked them accordingly.
Note: We don’t take founders or any personal accounts as the social site’s main account. For example, we are not taking into account Digg’s founder, @kevinrose but the official account, @Digg.
Nine free workshops will take place at Internet Retailing 2009 in London on October 13. Places are limited, though, so you need to book in advance to be sure of a seat.

Almost two decades after that legendary advert, Lucozade is going through its own 90 minutes of PR hellfollowing lurid headlines such as "The Lucozade Bombers" (in the Guardian) about the thwarted plot to blow up seven planes with bombs concealed inside bottles of the energy drink.

"PETA seems to be under the impression that "any publicity is good publicity", a mistake that has made them a worldwide laughingstock."
This ad,starring Pamela Anderson and generally described as "racy," feeds the unfortunate impression of animal rights activists as enemies of human freedom
So in yet another semi-nudity-fueled, celebrity-filled racy outing, PETA's (UK) got Pamela Anderson and Steve-O in a new commercial (video, really) hyping the cause groups anti-everything stance regarding animals and whether or not any part of them should be considered wearable.
