Here is the number of followers by time zone settings (removed time zones with less than 10,000 users, sorry Sydney).
Minimal analysis:
- Greenland - More people set their time zone to Greenland than the population there...
- Alska - Over 6% (!) of the population are tweeting [see also - 'Greenland'].
- Tokyo - Don't set your time zone to Tokyo if you want people to listen to you, lot's of people are tweeting from Tokyo but no one listens.
- No Time Zone - There's a very low followers count for people with no time zone setting - I guess the reason is that those people are new to Twitter or just don't care enough (those people are about 20% of this entire sample).
Data collected from the Twitter Sampling API, March 21st-25th, 2010.
Total number of users visible during that time frame: 2.5M (which is a very nice sample).
