Twitter Profile Page Ideas

My thumbnail ideas for useful information to display on an advanced, public Twitter profile page, per user. I.E.: Stats and heuristics to help me decide if this person will be interesting/unannoying to follow on Twitter.

Average and highest daily post volume

%age of total posts that are “@” responses

%age of total posts that include a link

Five most favorited posts by this person

Five posts by this person that attracted the most “@” responses

(up to) Five people this person follows who I also follow
(SORT BY least number of followers ASC)

[tells me more than if they follow CNN or Jason Calicacacainis]

Five most followed people who follow this person

Ratio of
Number of posts to number of people Followed (“The ‘Are You Really Using This?’ Index”)

Favorited posts to number of people they follow (“The Joy Index”)

Followers to Followed people (“The Reciprocation Index”)

Bonus: percentage of total links that point to the same domain name. (“DoucheFilter”)
Yeah it requires decrypting shorturls; that’s why we have computers.

So, yeah. Unpack those left joins, and have at it, boffins.
