The Mobile Web Africa 2010 conference was held in Johannesburg, South Africa on September 29 and 30, 2010
The top three most between people (@mtrends, @kiwanja, @andredebeer) each get retweeted by a large population of lightly interconnected people. These are people with relatively few followers (.5K to 5K) as compared to the "visiting dignitaries" like witnessorg, frogdesign, doctorow, kim, and reveznexus -- who all have many followers (26K-270K), but relatively few in this graph. Follower count is not always the most relevant metric in determining influence in a community.
