BackType It Up

For this week’s assignment, I played around with BackType – a monitoring site that provides companies, organizations and campaigns with a variety of analytics to better understand their social impact. Without an account (and hefty payment), the analysis is limited, but I was able to squeeze out a couple cool graphs with the freebee trial offer. Here is a comparison graph of Planned Parenthood and National Right to Life. I wanted to see if NRL was as active in the Twitterverse because of the latest budget battle. It doesn’t seem like NRL has done much…

Also: just for fun, I compared the influence index for fake Rahm and real Rahm – unsurprisingly, fake Rahm beat out real Rahm by a score of 59% to 47%.
