Let's face it: there is a seed a vanity in our desire to use any of these metrics. We may try to mask it in needing the analytics for business or ministry but deep down inside we all know better than that.

How much we actually use these services depends on whether we ar ein blogging and tweeting more for social fun or ministry or business profit.

I just put up a map of all my blog readers and I think that it is pretty cool to see where people are.
Although I would prefer to put some names to the dots on the map.
I think it helps knowing where a person is from when communicating.

But you can't really get past thinking that there are either too few dots or that there are a huge number – making you feel noticed – or not.

I'm still not sure what to make of the various Twitter analysis services. The rating from each one are based on certain assumptions about what makes one a more "valuable" tweep, and it's not always easy to find out what those assumptions are. One of the most controversial is the value of RTs (Re-Tweets). Some of the analysis software puts a lot of value on how much you are RTed. But some users feel that RTs are more annoying than helpful. I'm not of that opinion, but many of my friends seem to be.
