It seems to be a pretty common thing that people do when analyzing twitter. Often analysts look to see a clump of people who all follow each other or send each other messages a lot. An example can be seen here:

Under the "Worlds Apart" section he shows the gamergate and anti-gamergate groups all talking about #gamergate as well as the people in between
Often I think the concept of Centrality is used.
Ok. Gamergate thing is very new concept, which will take some more time for me to absorb.
Do you want to do something similar to what linkurio.us and KeyLines does?
Maybe? ;)
I haven't really used either, so I couldn't say
You can just check out their videos. They are like 1-2 min each.
The linksurio.us video wasn't too helpful, but this video I think hit close to what I'm thinking for this issue:

Maybe it would be a visual display or maybe it would just show a table of users/tweets/hashtags and a particular metric. I'm pretty open, though since nobody's asked for this yet I'm not in a hurry ;p
Hmm..ok..lets see. I am also still experimenting wiht couple of ruby and rails project. Will try to come back to this. After watching the video, I understood what centrality is. :)
Could you explain a bit what exactly you want to do in this?
