There's a weird thing going on with the sticky header on my Windows desktop (Chrome 27): when I scroll and the sticky headers disappear, the table is shrunk and the columns do not match their headers. Also, all of the links I've posted on my account show 0 clicks. I'm pretty sure at least one of the last 100 links have been clicked at least once... Or else I'm unpopular :P Most likely, there's a lower limit to the number of followers or clicks for the stats to show. Anyway, great tool.

  > Also, all of the links I've posted on my account show 0 clicks. My company's account has tens of thousands of followers (all organic) and we also see "0 clicks". We know we get a high CTR when including a link in a tweet as we measure it both on Bitly and the site's analytics. I guess the service is still rough around the edges, but looks promising.

  I was pretty sad about the 0 clicks stat, but then I realized I'm also not seeing any mention/follow/unfollow data in the graph, so perhaps it doesn't start displaying those details until you login to ads.twitter.com for the first time.

This is cool. I just gave a little talk at the place I work about blogging and tweeting, and I wanted to give them an idea of what sort of content is the most popular. I used TopTweet to analyze my tweets for that talk, but I would have used this if I'd known, as it does a pretty good job at finding the "best". Here's a screenshot of what I see: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10998095/Screenshots/8net~het47rh.png http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10998095/Screenshots/8net~het47rh.pn...

This is actually a lot less interesting than I was expecting it to be. I wonder if the "open to the public" version if not as robust as what you get if you're spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on ads.
