These is a follow up to a previous analysis. Again, I used the Twittter API to monitor public feeds from the Kenyan locality. The tweets were randomly collected throughout the month (April) using Trendy Desktop. The results are attached as images. http://twitpic.com/4sffft What is most significant is the rise of fluppy (m.fluppy.me) an open source mobile web client with Snaptu previously the most popular falling sharply as well as twitter. What is most interesting is that over 80% of Kenyans tweet from their mobiles. Also included is an analysis of how different users interact with twitter http://twitpic.com/4rw7dz http://twitpic.com/4rvzlh http://twitpic.com/4rvwrc http://twitpic.com/4rufvh http://twitpic.com/4ruff4 http://twitpic.com/4ruejw http://twitpic.com/4rkzh2 http://twitpic.com/4rkxv3 http://twitpic.com/4rkx0v http:\\www.twitter.com\trendydesktop
