There's a lot of people logged out or that doesn't change most of her data... so I think that this data isn't accurate.

- tmh88j 14y agoWhat do you mean? If they're logged out they're not active. Changing data (user info?) shouldn't matter because that's not how active users are checked.
- msmithstubbs 14y agoThe problem is that the analysis can't measure logged out accounts. Instead, they measure activity. From the article: ...active in this sense means the number of accounts that were modified over a three-month period, including changes of avatar, subscribing to a new follower or tweeting, says Guyot. “We believe this is close to a monthly login rate,” he tells me. So they are assuming if you haven't done anything, you aren't logged in. I rarely tweet and I don't think I've ever changed my avatar. I do follow or unfollow accounts, but I'm pretty sure I could find a few three months spans in my account history where I haven't. I generally check Twitter a couple of times a day from a logged in account, but based on the above criteria I would be considered 'inactive'.
