We are definitely not.

Influence is very difficult to gouge
perhaps some variant of the geiger counter
That’s a measured response.
There are some all round super people here.
mostly a list of harbos mates, although an interesting inclusion of gerry the *alleged* knee breaker & paedo hider
Clampers? Is that you?
Nope :)
How is someone influential on Twitter with only a couple of hundred followers?
Followers on twitter are no use when you have ascending colon cancer.
One of them is even a protected account.
easy there Philip Boucher Hayes – don’t en-gauge in eye gauge-ing too hastily
My name is ABI not Philip thanks
McWilliams? For an obviously intelligent guy he sometimes comes out with some awfully stupid shite.
That’s so badly written.
Not following any of the 50: Checked. Pfffffffffffffffffff
Influential? I think not, another pile of wed diarrhea from Niall (the 45 year old want to be mid twenties hipster) Harbiston.
He should do a list of the 50 most annoying people on twitter, he’d top the poll in IMO
Marriage equality has gone too far.

Those descriptions are very poorly-worded. E.g.,
“When it comes to fashion the brands in Ireland only need to get to one person. Finger well and truly on the pulse.”
“Vicki has been influencing your decisions and opinions for years through her work with Kiss Mad, VIP group and now the Independent if and heads up the best publication in print media in my opinion.”
“When it comes to travel and being promoting Ireland nobody does it better than Pol.”
“Not living In Ireland but well engrained in the tech scene in both Dublin and his native Cork.”
“One woman battering ram who is taking over the world in her own unique way.”
“battering ram”?
“One of the smartest and funniest men alive and lucky to call him Irish.”
“The person who came out of the bust in the best light because he called it along and continues to offer great wisdom.”
Rant over.
It’s all shit. Basically.
Gerry freaking Adams? Always carries great weight?
From the 27th Feb:
Just had a flashback 2 the 1 legged dog. Saw a 2 legged cat. Walking very tall. In Pearse St. On hind legs.
From 26th April, 2013:
Dreamt I was in a cafe drinkin coffee. Ryan Turbidy sat@my table.He smiled &read a newspaper.Iwas wearing 1 boot & 1 shoe.What does it mean?
Christ almighty….
Dream Interpretation 101:
“Dreamt I was in a cafe drinkin coffee.” – your asleep at the wheel of Sinn fein and should step down before the party is known as The Paedophile Protectors party
“Ryan Turbidy sat@my table” – he’s going to start referring to SF as The Paedophile Protectors Party on national media, you’ve been warned Gerry.
“He smiled &read a newspaper” – he was reading how print media are calling SF The Paedophile Protectors Party.
“Iwas wearing 1 boot & 1 shoe.What does it mean?” – You should be booted out of SF for dragging the party into such disrepute and having it labelled The Paedophile Protectors Party.
Nicely put.
Not really.
+ 30 Clampers.
Why is Dara O’Briain there when he lives in the UK?
It’s probably people living near the border getting the British internet signal.
I know – Dara O’Brain is Oirish – Gosh who knew?
He’s also a w-anchor.
Ha, I actually follow some of those. Didn’t expect I would.
You’d think if he found Paddy Cosgrave so influential he would be able to get his name right.
I’m surprised he has sufficient Wifi to even be on twitter.
It’s basically a list of his mates, right? Nearly all of them have ‘follows you’ under their name. Ego trippin’ clickbait.
Some very odd sentences and expressions, reads like an article that’s been translated from Norwegian to English via Google Translate. Ikke so veldig bra.
But enough about Una Mullally.
+1, chuckled.
Usual Websummit, Dublin startup luvvies, and Irish Times publishing crowd. Looks like the list was written by er, … them…
No Pat O’Mahony, Annie West, Oireachtas Retort, Irish Mammies,… oh how the mighty have fallen…. better write their own list.
It’s like the invite list to the latest match box opening thrown by a well-known self-professed hipster PR agency. Apart from a odd few they seem to mostly comprise of eeeejits who spread news rather than create it. Has any of them actually made anything worth talking about? Maybe a few but still… I’m not inclined to follow any if them either. Isn’t Twitter a bit blasè now?
Pardon my grammer today, my fringers are all over the place : )
Is it those with Twitter influence or those with influence in Dublin who are on Twitter?
Someone with 1,000 Tweets is hardly an influencer unless every Tweet is influence PLATINUM.
Brian ‘Biggie Spol’ Spollen made the list, which probably ensures tickets for all MCD shows in 2015 for Louise ‘Fade Street’ Johnston, who compiled the list. Brian has a protected account which is just as well given the amount of defamation which he engages in
No 47 replaced Damien Mulley who asked to be removed. He gets my vote!
+1
Sorry about obvious typo but sentiment is clear I hope
What a bunch of complete nobodys.
This is why i cannot stand the circle jerk of twitter.
At least the Arseblog guy gets a bit of credit. He’s done more than ANYONE on that list.
Surely all they’re doing is having a Twitter account? I don’t think any of them have claimed to be an elite. They can’t help it if someone likes them. I’m not sure what you mean by “nobodies”. Are you scolding them for not being more famous?
But it is hard to see the point of Twitter, I’ll give you that. Do you think it’s on the way out, or will it just chug along as it is?
There’s a good few on that list that very defintely do see themselves as part of the digerati elite and will include follower numbers in various business plans etc
Assume you’re being facetious about twitters rude health (although it’s still nowhere near as popular as the ‘dying platform’ of facebook). Unfortunately it’s going to be around annoying the hell out of me for a very very long time.
lovin dublin .. louise johnston .. of course its just guna be her mates and then just a bunch of twits more or less. the two biggest jokers on that list are cian healy and daniella moyles. particularly cian healy. just puts up pics of coffee and his pug dog.
