Having between 40 - 60% of your public posts be <strong>@replies</strong> indicates that you are conversing with folks, not just blasting out your own content. Hope that helps. John @Phao – I can’t say what the stats should be for all four kinds.

Hope that helps.

Can you tell me the stat of all 4 kinds of tweet that is the best. I wonder why the stat of reply post should be between 40% and 60%?
Can you tell me the stat of all 4 kinds of tweet that is the best.

I'm going to take the plunge and try tweetdeck thanks to another posting of yours. I was looking at that, spotted this article and enjoyed it as well. I absolutely LOVE the pix of the ostrich :) Thanks for the great info. I’m going to take the plunge and try tweetdeck thanks to another posting of yours.

I'm diggin' your last point: "Try different combinations and don’t be afraid to screw up. There are no rules on Twitter, just people." I'd add that the types of things you post and what type of posts you use on Twitter have some dependence on the 'followers' that you are serving. Your followers are there for a reason - understanding that is key to what you offer. Maybe the real trick is to find out what you offer that is valuable to others and get good at pushing that out - tricky though, huh?! --- http://twitter.com/franswaa Nice summary John …
