Would love to have you see a demo. I tried to find a way to email/DM you but no luck. Please kick me off and email attached to this comment and I’ll get something set up right away.

Cheers.

Thanks for the comment. We’re really interested in social media measuring here. It’s an area that’s developing quickly at the moment. Would be great to see your platform, especially before the conference I’m speaking at next week.

Great post. This is certainly a hot topic lately. At Radian6 we calculate the most influential sites/entities for a user-defined topic based on a weighted score controlled by the user. The elements that go into the scoring include total comments, total unique commenters, average engagement (which we calculate per post), and total on-topic inbound links. Our platform monitors all types of social media including blogs, forums, opinion sites, top video and image sharing sites, and emerging media like Twitter. We pull all of the conversations splintered across the spectrum into one system for review and real-time analysis. Our influencer calculation is a living and breathing scoring system as the dynamics of each on-topic post are constantly updated (as we return to the posts found on the topic and continue to recount the metrics). The user has the ability to adjust the weightings based on the makeup of the audience typically found within a topic. We also allow you to drill down into each influencer to understand who linked to them (on-topic) and who they linked out to – which would give you an idea of the sphere of influence.

Let me know if you are interest in seeing how the platform works. We’d love your feedback.

Cheers.
