Because we’ll take any opportunity to rank homosexuals, the new service Twitalyzer offers a new twist on measuring a Twitter user’s influence. Rather than just look at the number of followers (a seriously flawed methodology), Twitalyzer takes into account how often a user’s name is mentioned in tweets by other people, including retweets — which the company argues is a more accurate gauge of someone’s influence. So we decided to match up a few well known gays, as well as a few well known Gay Inc. groups, to see who’s leading the pack. Above, Ricky Martin v. Lance Bass.
GLAAD vs. HRC
And it wouldn’t be fair without pegging Queerty against, say, Ellen Degeneres. Fine, woman, you’re cooler than us!
Now go check out Twitalyzer and see if you have any web bragging rights.

It’s really impossible to compare Ricky Martin and Lance Bass, because while Ricky has been a solo artist for almost two decades, Lance hasn’t released any musical work outside of NSync. I actually wish that Lance did an album. He can’t be any worse than JC “Some Girls Dance With Women” Chasez. I wonder why no one wants to give him a chance?

@Alex Sarmiento:
I really don’t think he wants to. He was never the singer or dancer in the group-JC was the singer and Justin T was the dancer.
He was like Danny in NKOTB, except better looking. You always need one in a boy band.

It’s kind of sad to see so many people following HRC. They do studies of what action they should do, never do the action unless it’s a cocktail party, run smear campaigns on people actually doing something (Prop 8 lawsuit & DADT lawsuit), and then claim they were part of the enterprise from the beginning. They ride on other people’s coat-tails and raise money for nothing.

I hear birds chirping when I listen to the twitter. Some people hear Ricky Martin – weird.

Has Ricky Martin donated the blood money he earned from Target to a pro-gay cause?
If not then no gay person should buy his album or attend one of his shows.
He is a wretched traitor (then again what else can you expect from someone who sang at the presidential inauguration of Bush the Lesser?)
