Jacob Cass tops this months list of Newcastle's twitterarty with over 10,000 followers.
Its a good number when you consider radio stars @kyleandjackieo (Kyle and Jackie O) have only 9,200 followers, @kylie_minogue (Kylie Minogue) 7,400 followers, @rove1974 (Rove McManus) 5,850 followers and the Sunday Telegraph's @tabloidterror (Ros Reines) 1,280 followers.
Talking about radio stars, Newcastle giants of the airwaves NXFM's duo @NXFMSteveandkim only has 60 followers trailing KOFM's @davidandtanya with 65 followers.
A piece of advice for our local radio stars, Twitter is not a broadcast medium, its a conversational medium.
What we don't see on our Newcastle Top Twit list is our local politicians.
