[Air-L] top tweeters by location

[Dr. Rasha Abdulla]

Hi all,

Just being on the Twitter community here in Egypt, I would think it's a lot
more than these numbers. We have over 5.6 million users on Facebook, and I
suspect at least a million or two on Twitter. I'm not even sure where I'm
listed as from:) I'll go check now!

And yes, many of us deleted or changed "Egypt" as the country of origin
during the days before the revolution, and some have done that and/or have
been using a proxy server for years.

Best regards.
Rasha
