As Twitter becomes more mainstream, everyone and their mother (and grandmother… and mayor… and daytime TV host) is trying their hand at the tweet. But what they might not realize is that how you use Twitter can say a lot about you.
In honor of our new Yahoo! Homepage, which was designed to be customized to reflect your true personality, we’ve launched a new tool that helps you analyze your social mojo. Just enter your Twitter username and our highly scientific pipe thingy goes to work to determine exactly what kind of Twitter persona you possess. You might be a:
- Headliner – You’re the star of the Twitterverse, have tons of followers, and have retweets the likes of Ashton Kutcher and Perez Hilton
- Crowd Pleaser – You use lots of hashtags and are in on all the hot conversations
- Cheerleader – Retweeting is how you roll
- B.F.F. – Your volume of @replies makes you everybody’s best bud
- Party Animal – With so many followers, you’re the life of the party
- Private Eye – Like any good investigator, you’re following a boatload of people
- Concierge – You live for links and sending people to the best stuff
- Word Whiz – You’re a natural wordsmith and make the most of your 140 characters
- Lone Wolf – You’re more of a low-profile type (some might even accuse you of lurking)
- Name Dropper – You use lots of @names when you tweet
- Matchmaker – You pass along lots of URLs to make sure everyone’s connected
- Wall Flower – You don’t tweet much but you’re still in on the party
- Novelist – You have a lot to say and tweet with a lot of characters to prove it
- Shadow – You follow lots of people like a good shadow would
- Scenester – If there’s a hashtag conversation happening, you’re there
- Tweethead – Your high number of retweets shows you like to spread the good stuff

And once you get your assessment, we suggest a number of related websites that you can add to your very own Yahoo! Homepage to help feed your mojo.
Give it a try — http://yahoo.knowyourmojo.com… and then tweet about it. (And be sure to follow us on Twitter — we’re a Concierge.)

Interesting concept I think I created this idea at Search Engine Strategies Toronto 2009:

Hi Yahoo,
Nice site, love the scrolling pipes to get the result.
Did you get this idea from my site http://twittruth.com?
If so when do I start to get the royalty checks?
Thanks
Gary

Yahoo! Know Your Mojo 在 Firefox 3.5 下不能完全显示内容。

@Maqingxi – It works for us on Firefox 3.5. I wonder if there’s an issue with FF3.5 in China?

I have just done this and as I thought, I am a wallflower. I really only use twitter to follow a few groups that I like.
