Cha's Twitter study, called "The Million Follower Fallacy," supports earlier research suggesting that the number of Twitter followers is meaningless. "Popular users who have a high indegree [number of followers] are not necessarily influential in terms of spawning retweets or mentions," Cha writes, quoted in the Harvard Business Review. From the study's abstract: [U]sing a large amount of data collected from Twitter, we present an in-depth comparison of three measures of influence: indegree, retweets, and mentions.
