		<description><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-style: italic;">By Staff Writer – John Federico (<a href="http://twitter.com/gadgetboy" target="_blank">@gadgetboy</a>)</span><br />
<img src="http://www.techstartups.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/tweetlevel_screenshot.jpg" alt="TweetLevel Screenshot" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3595" width="622" height="422"><br />
PR firm Edelman <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_relations" title="Public relations" rel="wikipedia">Public Relations</a> has launched its own twitter measurement tool. The tool, called TweetLevel, is a <span style="font-weight: bold;">qualitative</span> tool that measures a Twitterers &#8220;gravitas&#8221; or importance based on the content of their tweets. It takes some serious semantic mojo to accomplish that and I have to wonder if Edelman is up to the task.</p>
<p> Of course, TweetLevel doesn&#8217;t ignore numbers altogether. It does take into account the number of followers a <a class="zem_slink" href="http://twitter.com/" title="Twitter" rel="homepage">Twitter</a> account may have and the account&#8217;s &#8220;participation&#8221; in the community (I assume that means tweet frequency). However, the tool places a much greater weight on what is being said and how trustworthy an individual twitterer may be.</p>
<p> Using a 100-point scale, here are some of TweetLevel&#8217;s highest rated Twitterers:<br /> 
<ul>
<li>Perez Hilton (score: 86.5)</li>
<li>Mashable (86.3)</li>
<li>Twitter Tips (85.2)</li>
</ul>
<p> Perez Hilton!? Edelman&#8217;s developers may have to go back into the lab for a rewrite&#8230;</p>
<p> Microsoft PR Agency of Record <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waggener_Edstrom_Worldwide" title="Waggener Edstrom Worldwide" rel="wikipedia">Waggener Edstrom</a> launched a similar tool called <a class="zem_slink" href="http://twendz.waggeneredstrom.com" title="Twendz" rel="homepage">Twendz</a> earlier this year. Twendz monitors trending topics on Twitter while providing <a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentiment_analysis" title="Sentiment analysis" rel="wikipedia">sentiment analysis</a> on those topics. As of this post, I was unable to get Twendz running in Chrome, <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/" title="Firefox" rel="homepage">Firefox</a> or <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/safari/" title="Safari" rel="homepage">Safari</a> on my <a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.apple.com/macbook/" title="MacBook" rel="homepage">MacBook</a> running Snow Leopard 10.6.2. The Company plans to offer a premium version of the tool later this year.<br />
