<p>The eclectic one-item-at-a-time online store <a href="http://Woot.com/">Woot</a>! passed <a href="http://twitter.com/woot">the 1 million follower</a> mark in July. I just learned about it in their August email newsletter; today they have <span id="follower_count">1,197,831 </span>followers and 2,671 tweets.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://twitter.com/woot">Woot! Twitter feed</a> advertises the sale of the day, which is available until it is sold out or until 11:59pm Central, when it is replaced with the next day’s item. There are usually two tweets a day, with the second being identified with a “Last Call” alert.</p>
<p>This is the same model used by <a href="http://twitter.com/amazonmp3">AmazonMP3</a> (992,383 followers, 645 tweets), although Amazon has more than one offer each day. It is similar to that used by <a href="http://twitter.com/delloutlet">Dell Outlet</a> (1,097,064 followers, 663 tweets). The DellOutlet account differs from the other two, however. In addition to the posts advertising products, Dell’s tweeter (<a href="http://twitter.com/StefanieATDell">@StefanieATDell</a>) posts contents, retweets and @ replies. <a href="http://twitter.com/dellhomeoffers">Dell HomeOffers</a>, which is a sale posts only account like AmazonMP3 and Woot, has only 3,412 followers, but it is also a newer account with only 357 tweets.</p>
